You And Bonsais
Hundred years seem to you
A very short journey
In the time’s whirlwind
One day you dropp
Like a tender bough
Feeling scant of the saps
You sipped from the Earth
And wait for a new life!
May be many a life
To slake fully your thirst
Ignore the callus dwarfs
With stunted brains
Who may feel complete
Even at young sixties
They are just bonsais
At two feet from the floor
They claim of holding
The boundless skies in whole
With stars and planets
In their two clumsy fists
