On the Paths-Part I

Walking down the lane of life...
Oh...so much strife....
One step I trod... the first time...
seemed to ask...why's there no rime...

Rime's nay coz it ain't the last....


Hearing the sounds of Gaia,
Echoin' against her terra firma....
pristine,her voice...so pure,
It was..her..great allure...

Trudging on its path....
travels endless...
existence existed...
Heard the nocturne....

I came to a tree...
Oh...was it free?
Roots take away its freedom...

I asked the tree..."why aren't you free?"
It looked in glee...It didn't answer me....

Glad question thy ask....
It said...
Roots aren't for me servitude....

I ask thee to know....
what would life be without them..
For Man,woman and child.... they are just 'roots'
For a sapling flora,
They are more than your worth....

Imagine.....
A day without support....
A day without legs...
A day with all weakness...

A day that most fear...

That,my friend, is what our roots are...

submerged,yet strong...
growing with us all day long...

They breathe life.... for us

....

I camped along on this night...near the tree...
the tree of so simple...yet full of wisdom....
against its warm barks i rested...
for another day the morning next....

As I lay,watching the owls on its hands...
thanking for a place to sleep....
slumbered too I did...
With lesson I know I need....

Roots.....

they do more ,than stay behind...

So for all the roots in my life....

Nik,Xau,Gary
Sam,Dumbo,,Ray,Fabe...
none in order...

A Deep thanks.....

Cheers!
