Sometimes, I wish I could be a tree. But it's not always easy to stand tall in the storms of life. To look over the horrors as they go by and be oblivious to it. But we have to strengthen our backbone and face the wind, even if it blows off a couple of our leaves.
They start over from a blistering freeze every spring. But it's not always easy to pick up from where we left off. To grow new leaves every year that glisten in the sun but somehow they manage to do so.
A tall figure standing in the wind, sun and cold. A symbol of determination and strength is something I wish I could be compared to. But trees fall with a loud thump, and I.
I leave silently.
