In this week’s Poet’s Corner, broadcaster and UK poet Dean Fraser contributes a poem where freedom is found in nature.
Today I pull up the drawbridge
My domain
My castle
None may enter
Today I go to the mountain
My niche
My cave
None may find me
Today I commune with nature
My forest
My seashore
None may follow
Today I bid adieu for a while
My freedom
My retreat
None may know.
