Swing and Sway..

Let go...

Like a pendulum 

it swings 

to and fro, to and fro, to and fro

Simple harmonics 

Dis-arranged imbalance economics 

Like a boxing bag 

left right and center 

being punched 

and being kicked 

so weightless 

that every blowing breeze 

has an impact on it 

twisting and turning 

sometimes thrusting it 

down its feet 

rocky is life 

swing and sway 

everybody is in motion 

jerks and bumps 

they all play many pranks 

hung up on a string 

vibrant colors set to dry 

woven are threads of life 

to live and breathe 

and to go with the flow 

is everyone's right

pollinate and travel 

go with the tides and the wind 

let loose 

set it free..

Don't know what I was thinking of while writing this, took about 2 minutes max..setting free I guess!

and setting free the muse is sometimes , most times the best...

next to last line, did you mean "let loose"?

it seems the speaker is talking about life swinging both ways constantly and how we need to go with the flow...not force reactions...

just like how this poem is so flowing and smooth, not forced.

Show off, 2 minutes you get genius! I thought this was about dancing, I should know better with you...took a turn and got slapped in the head, nicely I might add. What a way to look at this mess, very clever, very poetic, if only it were that easy to 'go with the flow'....!

hahaha..!! Frieda you made me smile with this review..! aye aye guess I have been inspired by you today..in life YES it is sometimes hard to go with the flow, a lot of limitations, but at least we can let it sway, let it rock with our words! We are poets after all..thank you for the inspiration :)
