You need to move often.
You must travel light.
If you sense danger
be quick to take flight.
Eat what you find.
Drink when you can,
and when the winds change,
just make a new plan.
Sing every day.
Sing your own song.
Make your voice heard.
It will help make you strong.
Keep your nest simple.
Make your life plain.
Fly toward the good things.
Fly away from the pain.
Take care of your children.
Just do your best,
and when the time comes,
push them out of your nest.
The world is a good place.
Your friends hold you dear,
so stretch out your wings
and soar without fear.
--Sappho
