The Pause
Ceased its dance, ignored nature’s laws?
Have you seen a bird, with wings untied,
Slumber all day, letting dreams reside?
What if the plant, in quiet defiance,
Shunned its toil, broke its alliance?
Why is it you, who tires and sighs,
Seeking sparks to make life rise?
Is it the burden of thought we bear,
The weight of choice, a fleeting care?
Or a casual rift with life’s grand art,
Misunderstanding the rhythm at heart?
