Children Who Wait
By Scott Newport

Not so different than me
On this tree
Grasping on to life
We wonder

The wonder of
Next days
And next
Afternoons

Cold winds
Blow us ‘round
Twisting and turning
On a brittle stem
Weak but
Still alive

Autumn is a word
I’ve heard by those
Who have passed-
Underneath these
Low hanging branches

I’ll hold on for
One more day
Or till I see the
Others who have fallen
Are no
Different than me

Makes me sad to think children go throught such mind wrenching thoughts.
From them we can also learn.
Thanks for sharing this

You have a great talent for mixing art, nature, and the human experience together to paint awesome pictures that we can either relate to or learn from. Beautiful piece!
