I have lived my life in a cage built of rules, close quarters with a lot of requirements.
I yearn to raise a free daughter, I imagine what that would look like.
I encourage curiousity, letting her wonder and wander,
Saying yes more than no because after all, why not?
I ask her to notice and she does.
More than I realize.
So I’m trying to be brave and explore beyond my rules,
For how can I raise a free daughter when I keep myself caged?
