The Big Oak Tree
Journal Entry: Jan 10, 2009 03:01 PM
Trees are a wondrous thing.
They transcend this world.
They bask in the divine sunlight
while drinking the water of the underworld.
Reaching closer and closer to the stars,
with each new generation.
But it is a long journey to the stars
And this tree is plagued with many selfish leaves.
They argue and fight for sunlight.
They forget the tree below their stem.
The leaves they seem to forget themselves.
They argue, they fight, they forget
and then they die.
