Swinging on the Branches of Life

Writer's picture: ToriaToria

Swinging on the branches of life


I swing on the branches of life

Swinging back and forth

From chaos to calm

From stress to relaxation in a minute or two

From excitement to the mundane

A swing I can’t get off

Often the urge to jump and make it stop

Yet, it carries on

A branch of unknown strength

As sometimes I swing

Holding on with my fingertips

As the branches dips up and down

Ensuring I don’t land on the hard desolate ground

Where I will never get up

Forever grounded

As the wild natural branches cover me up

Until then I swing on the fragile swinging branches

When I need them

Holding out their branches to me

As if holding my hands

To make sure I don’t fall

On the desolate floor

I will continue to swing on the branches of life

Swinging back and forth
