Lifetime

 

 

Cedar tree begins
Taken from wild home, it thrives
Bonsai dish new home

Crooked bonsai tree
Stunted dwarf confined in pot
Twisted and deformed

Young and old lesson

it is such a short lifetime 

Grow old gracefully

I feel like your bonsai tree,

I feel like your bonsai tree, stunted and confined ...I'm not growing old gracefully ...kicking and screaming all the way.
