The Breath of Life
May 17, 2023
You can breathe like the leaves
of a nice brown autumn tree,
for they know of all
of the patience and prosperity
Or breathe like the rain of spring
but you will find out soon
that you will only receive such little dreams
Or breathe like the dangers
of the fiery pit,
for it has no control
over what it kissed
Or you can breathe like the cold
because of it likes
for everything
to unfold when told
So which season do you like the best,
so you can finally sit down
knowing that all your troubles
will be addressed?
