Perspective Poem by emma 532

Perspective



where to go..where life takes you
the sun comes ever closer
the shadows ever nearer.

warmth & light
interchange
in a moment to
wind & shadow,
as I sit
watching the water rush by

a playful shadow amongst the trees?
or a playful sun with the mountains?
'I dreamt I was a butterfly
or did the butterfly, dream that it was
me? '


*the last '' is from Zhuang Zi (Ancient Chinese Philosopher) .
