there is a tree
in the middle
of the wood
clouds fly by
as with bats
the closer you
get
there will be the voices
of the past
far from life
but closer to the grave yard
they will tell you of things
you realy do not want to hear
about your self and
the problem is
that they will not tell
you how to fix things
so you are on your own
down the road of life
there is a tree

i see what i write and write what i see

I wish they would tell me how to fix things sometimes. I like this poem ... great images and I kind of fell into it as I was reading.

Answers do come to those that seek them...clear your mind...clean out your closet...perhaps not the answer you seek...but truth finds its way...James
