a tree that appears lifeless is alive giving a delusional appearance pretending to be old and worn but the tree that appears lifeless is alive. a man that appears withered is full of life walking with a tiresome gate going about and living the days but the man that appears withered is full of life. a clock that appears the have slowed is alive giving a notion of the end of time counting the minutes and passing the hours but that clock that appears slow is alive.
Reason for writing:
My inspiration for this perticular poem was the snow.
It has been snowing here and when I looked outside,
the first thing I saw was a tree that appeared dead,
as most do at this time, but my sense of seasons has
been off...so for a second, it did not click that due
to the weather, that is why the tree is like that.
