Tree of Life
Ancient roots take hold,
Tiny seed to growing oak,
Life's journey unfolds.
Youth's branches stretch wide,
Reaching for dreams in the sky,
Unfurling with pride.
Maturity's bark,
Weathered by time's gentle touch,
Stories etched within.
Autumn leaves descend,
Whispering tales of seasons,
Nature's final call.
Silent in slumber,
Beneath the moon's watchful eye,
The cycle renews.

5 haiku
pushing through the maze
of amniotic fluid
catching life’s lightening
toddling through breaking
glass, the abusive dry leaves
of silent knowledge
making fake friends laugh
was my one superpower
without the red cape
working for nothing
but raising a family
the means to an end
padding retirement
in the golden years of life
working till i’m dead
