strength

strength of the tree
to bend, to break
to fall, to crawl, to lie, to die

strength of the earth
to walk, to step
to wait, to watch, to wonder why

strength of the sun
to dare, to raise, your eyes, the skies,
where there, she flies

strength of the blood
to hold your breath
then breathe again, and challenge death.
