A bird flutters carelessly across my path,
momentarily dividing the green
of the tress
from the blue of the sky...
and squirrels continue their
playful runs,
unaware of me,
or the answers I seek...
And while turning,
the sun catches my eyes
as I search for answers
to the reasons for
the pain I have inside...
leading my thoughts down avenues,
of compassion and love,
or the pain that exists
from the lack thereof....
Trying to understand
why human nature is
the way it is...
I realize that nature continues
absent of emotion with just one agenda,
A drive to live.
