To live near the ocean
To experience the sea
To climb hills and mountains,
Swim rivers, be free
To watch caterpillars crawl down from a tree
To run after butterflies and giggle with glee
To bathe in the moonlight
To sing those nightsongs
To dance with the fireflies
As the wind sings along
To go through life naked
Go out on a limb
To live this life bravely
Do things on a whim
To fight for my rights
Know how to say "No."
Be proud of my strength
Let my courage show
To love with a passion
To burn with desire
To soar to the heaven
And touch God's great fire
These are my life longings
These are my beliefs
I am a wild woman
Forever, for keeps

I love your poem. Escpecially the 1st ten lines, even though I'm a guy. Of course, I can't relate to the female references, but I do respect it. I love seeing nature in poetry. Howling good!
