Question

I'm leaving now to slay the foe
Flight the battles, high and low
I'm leaving, mother, hear me go !
Please wish me luck today.
I've grown my wings, I want to fly
Seize my victories where they lie,
I'm going Mom, but please don't cry
just let me find my way
I want to see and touch and hear
Though there are dangers, there
are fears,
I'll smile my smiles and dry my tears-
Please let me speak my say
I'm off to find my world, my dreams,
Crave my niche, see my seams,
Remember, as I sail my streams-
I'll love you, all the way.
-Brooke Muller
