Poem: 'Connection'

 by Anna Medina




 

The trees voice their tranquillity

Rooted so firmly, yet unconstrained.

Composed of naivety; blind to existence and its flaws.

Oblivious towards their subsistence and the life they so effortlessly cultivate,

without sentience, purely a being that resides amongst us.

Could they perhaps perceive the envy I exude?

I yearn to experience true carelessness,

to be able to find clarity in merely existing.

Content without conscience, left undisturbed from expectations. 

Rooted. The freedom from ambiguity promised through their survival. 

The universe in its humblest form,

connected to the very earth itself.
