poem of the day January 7 

The life of cows

seems so romantic

Thousands of them

roaming free in

untouched landscapes

Big open spaces

gathered around

in huge lazy herds

Eating grass

basking in 

the winter sun

So idyllic 

until I spot

the barbed wire

hemming their lives in

Reminding me

that all life

is bounded

with circumstances

and that freedom

is only found within
