Icarus

    Wild, Beautiful and Free

    2004

    Wildness
    Is a place in the heart
    And with her mane untamed
    Passionate
    Like the thunder of horses running free
    She will always be
    A wild woman
    To me

    Beauty
    Is a place in the mind
    And with her smile reclaimed
    Sensual
    Like the moods of the waves on the sea
    She will always be
    A rare beauty
    To me

    Freedom
    Is a place in the soul
    And with her muse unchained
    Creative
    Like the dance of the breeze
    She will always be
    A free spirit
    To me

    Forever
    Is a place in the now
    And with her gift unnamed
    Shining
    Like the dew in the sun on the leaves
    She will always be
    Wild and beautiful
    And free
