The Tree Of Freedom


Have you ever thought about a tree? When I say thought I don’t just mean glancing at and thinking. “That’s pretty.” Or “that smart”. I mean really thought about it? Well I have.

First the trunk. Isn’t is amazing? It just stays there. No matter how many times you kick, stab, punch or nudge it. It never moves. It’s always there. In the one spot. I guess it’s a bit like a home. Or a family. It’s always there for you. Then comes the braches. They branch out into all different directions. Endless possibility’s. Unlike the trunk, they have the possibility of moving. Being cut down or removed. Sort of like paths. You have so many options ahead of you. Some may disappear. Some may stay the same. Then there’s me. That small little leaf on the possibility I’ve chosen. I sit there. Without purpose. Waiting to leap, to find somewhere to explore. Then you come. Like the wind. You lift me high and carry me on your back. I sore to places I never dreamed possible. But because of you. I’m free. You saved me from withering.

You my love.
