tools

Perfection

Perfection 

Worn out tools in thirst of rebirth,
all acquaintances blame its existence
yet, once it arose to make it high.

 

Time and again failure shook the hands
However, short-lived branches,
making its hay to touch the ground:

 

At my heart banyan tree.
Whose depth and lengths
lesser known to one who counts.

 

Let my tools find new horizons,
in line at finishing my tasks
doubting self best of my choices.
I wish too many worn out tools
bank the perfections.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

This poem was obvously not about a bike. It was about me. None of the guys I dated stuck around for that long. but I still loved them all the same. I finally am on my (fingers crossed) last guy that i will have for the rest of my life.
