Campfire Stories 64 (Olinda) by Alex Albrecht @melquiadesmusic

~ About The Story ~

A free bird leaps on the back
Of the wind and floats downstream 
Till the current ends and dips his wing 
In the orange suns rays
And dares to claim the sky.

But a BIRD that stalks down his narrow cage
Can seldom see through his bars of rage
His wings are clipped and his feet are tied
So he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings with a fearful trill
Of things unknown but longed for still
And his tune is heard on the distant hill for
The caged bird sings of freedom.

The free bird thinks of another breeze
And the trade winds soft through
The sighing trees
And the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright
Lawn and he names the sky his own.

But a caged BIRD stands on the grave of dreams
His shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
His wings are clipped and his feet are tied
So he opens his throat to sing.

The caged bird sings with
A fearful trill of things unknown
But longed for still and his
Tune is heard on the distant hill
For the caged bird sings of freedom.
- Maya Angelou

Campfire Stories 82 (Across The Cosmic Land) by @Saphileaum

~ About The Story ~

“You are free now from all your fears,” the wave
says, playing around my feet. “And yes, now you
know why a calm sea does not make a skilled sailor.”

Every time I see the calm sea
I remember voices from my childhood,
I look for a word that was never spoken.

The sea is calm, like the face of a child after dark night’s
unrest. I love its breathing, the movement of waves, like a
mother’s breath, are so loving that in the past they

put out the alarm, the storm, the fears of childhood
and now calm some future alarm and fears and storm
off the whole world’s coast. Yes, that was the moment I found

a word that had been spoken only once, maybe, or was never
spoken at all. All these storms are in me now, that’s
why I’m calm, I am the captain of all calmness, mother.

Campfire Stories 83 (Infinite Shore) by June Hyeok

~ About The Story ~
 
I'll go back to heaven again.
Hand in hand with the dew
that melts at a touch of the dawning day,
 
I'll go back to heaven again.
With the dusk, together, just we two,
at a sign from a cloud after playing on the slopes
 
I'll go back to heaven again.
At the end of my outing to this beautiful world
I'll go back and say: It was beautiful…
- Cheon Sang-Byeong
