Your daily chores don't bother me <br />I don't know domesticity <br />Forever I'll be wild and free <br />No angst or stress do I forsee <br />Time and tide don't concern me <br />I stand alone so let me be <br />You'll not see me on bended knee <br />To be this way you must agree <br />Is a sound philosophy <br />I develop with impunity <br />My kind and I you like to see <br />As the seasons transform me <br />A wondrous life to be a tree<br /><br />Esra Sloblock<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/branching-out-or-rooted/
