The river that originated agitated
now stands silent in the plain
the lines on my face
have changed, but the eyes remain
the wheel has turned again
for another round lame
The tree I water is withered
but I love it the same
I did my tasks each day
some changed over the years
waking up with the same fate
of smiles, songs and tears
as if time has not travelled and
I am alive in the distinct moments
it does not matter to me…
