Choices by Touchy Tresses

If I were a cloud
I would give up staying high up
I choose to become a raindrop scattering down to world
You ask me why
Please look at those sad and moody lives
That is my reply

If I were a river
I would give up flowing into the sea
I choose to turn into a sweet stream flowing into the wheat field
You ask me why
Please listen to the laughter of happiness from the farmers
That is my answer

If I were an ancient wild mushroom
I would give up immortality
I choose to be melt into healing drops flowing down people’s throat
You ask me why
Please have a look at the recovering patient’s smiling face
That is my reply

If I were an ore
I would give up peace and comfort
I choose to be melt in the pot and become boiling hot steel
You ask me why
Please have a look at all the high rise
That is my answer

If I were a dove
I would give up playing freely
I choose to deliver the olive branch to war torn countries tirelessly
You ask me why
Please look at the once war tortured children playing happily
That is my reply

Life
An endless multiple choice question
Go forth
Step back
To the left
Turn right
If you have lost your direction
Look into your heart
The truth, the kindness, and beauty
That is your answer
