Creative Brooding

Welcome to my blog. My name is Pat O'Connor and I wanted to create one little spot where I could share feelings, thoughts, even ramble if I want to. Perhaps too, reveal a side of me very few know about. If there are two words I would use to describe myself, those two would be iconoclastic and eclectic.

Carry me away in the wings of the wind......

sail away....sail away ...above the clouds.....beyonds the stars

To where there is no more pain....no more sorrow....no more suffering.

Sail away....

to a land where I am free.

Let me splash in the waves....

play in the sand....

walk along an endless shore...

with the warmth of the sun to caress my soul...

to feel the white sands squishing between my toes...

and the peace of eternity to heal my broken spirit.

Sail away....to a land where I am free

Where the chains of life are broken...

and the spirit is free to seek the beauty of its own fullfillment,

to a land where the heart is given a new life of hope and joy.

Carry me away on the wings of the wind

let me disappear beyond eternity....

to hide in the bosom of the great beyond.


Why is no one willing to give me persmission to die

and why do I feel the need for that permission?

Born free, as free as the wind blows, as free as the grass grows,
Born free to follow your heart.
Live free and beauty surrounds you, the world still astounds you,
Each time you look at the stars.
Stay free where no walls divide you, you're free as the roaring tide,
So there's no need to hide.
Born free and life is worth living, but only worth livng,

Cause you're born free.

Man is born free, but everywhere he is in chains
