I write simple poems….
The magnificent tree adorned with colorful leaves, with strong branches and enduring roots,
Representing the beauty of nature, something we can’t refute,
Oh how quickly those pretty leaves can disappear,
Similar to those people who have that phony veneer,
Even the sturdy branches may break during a severe storm,
Just like the people who exit are lives when our hearts become torn, when our bodies become worn, when our souls get caught within the thorns,
Unlike the roots which take hold within firm ground, Like those comforting songs with a soothing sound,
Loyal friends who stand by our side when we are down,
Free me from this world of phones, drones and artificial stimuli,
Stir my mind, make my heart skip a beat, help me feel alive, take me back to the world of nature to help me revive……
