why on earth
would i like to live a different life?
i'm listening to the birds,
do you hear them?
do you hear them
talking to each other,
why would i want to live a life
without them on my side.
i'm hugging trees
they're turning to brown
from green
they're well-prepared for the winter ahead
so wise,
and gave birth to so many.
why would i want to live a life
without trees on my side.
i'm walking on this earth,
soil is rich, and generous,
it gives me bread, tea, and more food
than i can ever imagine.
and if i put my head down,
it's ready to heal.
