Life is like the milkweed pod;
Head in the air, roots in the sod,
Tender in youth, stiffer with age,
Little in green, older in beige.
Seeds are like years, sprinkled to the wind,
The start known; unknown the fluffy end.
Life is like the milkweed pod.

Hypocrite – sinner on the sly,
Who will get found out, bye-n-bye.
Appearances mean much to him,
Wants his soul to look fat – it’s slim.
Such folk don’t go beyond the sky. -eab, 9/1/08
