Ode to People

All of the people

spread out in many

ways.

The tree

of life

grows a branch every day,

reaching out

it's limbs crawling

with new

littles.

People are kind

gentle

lovely and human

caring for

those who don't.

Growing: a heart

a glowing beam of light

do not let it die.

The people may

be powerful

But weakness is an enemy

and dawn

is approaching.

The people stretch

out and begin

to walk

work

will

people will

achieve greatness

the day is here

and plenty to be

done.

But people

work hard

and accomplish

the unimaginable.

Together

they

defeat

grow

begin

end

fight

resolve.

The people of life.
