Out of the cage <br />you had not known you were in <br />with a freedom <br />beyond what you thought it to be <br />into the spaciousness <br />which was boundless <br />and a joy <br />which redefined itself day by day <br />around a firm centre <br />which was everywhere <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />for Joanna<br /><br />Michael Shepherd<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/0048-on-first-reading-rilke/
