A Chorus Of Children Poem by Doris Cornago

A Chorus Of Children

Rating: 5.0


A lone bellpepper makes it against the wind
And constant beating of the merciless
Rain shadowed by tiny leaves
Springing sprightly like
A chorus of children
Singing gaily
Sunup
Until
Sundown
I'll stay around
I'll be the clown not
Frown, but just be there
Holding fast by a sinuous
Branch fatly gripping, complaining
Not, nodding to the rhythm of my own
Music, singing contralto, yeah, de sintunado
Laughing at the universe rotating madly, rootless

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
We should learn about facts of life by looking at nature and how things actually work. Fruits prevail with little help but just hang in there despite circumstances.: -)

Thank you Kumarmani. That bellpepper showed me the beauty of tenacity. I owe it this poem. Also, you for dropping by and seeing the bellpepper through the poem. We are actually all bellpeppers. :)

Take up your life and do your best with it. Be responsible for your actions and don't blame your circumstances or failures. The universe is equally kind and unkind, it favors no one, the sooner you realize that, the better.: -)
