Analysis of Free to speak
Free to speak
The truth
As it is at peace
Picking up
The pieces to form
A lasting freedom
Of an eternal world
Of light and water
That pours out
Of a mouth
That speaks freely
As a form of a tree
That bears leaves
That fall to the ground
And leaves seeds
To be buried in the earth
As children who grow
Upon the grounds
Of a world
That casts a light
And pours out
Many waters
And a voice of thunder
