The leafA Poem by AreejFragile yet resilient.
As thin as paper
As light as a feather So seemingly insignificant Yet as resilient as a ship A ship caught in the storm Hanging from a thin green thread Just like hopes and dreams Just like the arc that saved us all So delicate So fragile Yet so requisite And in the end It's life So short and uncertain O green oar of life How do you do it Why do you do it Protect us all All the while defying Defying the winds of change And yet in the end Burning and dissolving Into a dry colorless crisp Like you never existed © 2017 Areej |
