Oh to live my life
as a leaf on a stream;
Not allowing myself
to come apart at every trial.
Gently meandering along
the current, babbling and serene...
Only to round a corner
picking up speed,
to be dashed against a rock
then thrown against drifting
branches.
My tattered edges caressing
the white caps, my color
still everso brilliant.
The stream is a stream
It can only go its own path
and I am but a leaf
going where it takes me.
All my nics and scars
make me no less what I am;
Only I have that power
by how I choose to challange
the challanges,
Do I struggle agains the current
or be faithful to continue on
-where ever it takes me?
