Life is like

Life is like

A curious thing is a leaf on a tree,

It dances and spins yerning to be free,

Free of responsibility and strife,

Yet in freedom would it not loose its life.

It is true that it will not survive,

But to dance in the wind is to be alive.

After it soars and glides it will fall,

But it would rather die now than in the fall.

Carried by the wind's shreiking screams,

how many leaves live their dreams?

Like Once again short and sweet, however their is a content of depth in what you say. i can tell you feel for the trees.

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
