I LIVE ON A TREE

I live on a tree

Which sits on the earth

Come to think of it, who doesn’t?

Then you must be some human

Food you eat,

Some clothes you wear,

The air you breathe,

All come from the tree

And its plant kingdom

So boldly call me an animal

Without thinking of what you are

And eat fruits,

Lie on a bed or a mat

And enjoy your unknown sarcastic life.

Just a simple Ghanaian trying to find the best in our society. I may be fun, I may be interesting, I may be funny, I may even be foolish or intelligent, but it is all based on the mood in which you find yourself. I believe our minds make us who we are. Know that, pain, no matter its 'unbearability', is transient. Unburden or delight yourself for a while in my writings please. And all corrections, advice and opinions are welcome. Know that you are the king, queen or royal on this blog. :)
