To Live
The veins of a leaf flows life
Water keeps leaves healthy
But what keeps them alive can also kill them
Too much, too much to live
Drowned and drooping down from its stem
All the other leaves don't question why they are still alive
They just are...
Branches grow wildly
Free like birds soaring across worlds of blue
They belong to the tree and the leaves belong to the branches
When it's their time, they don't cry, they don't complain, they just bleed
Sap leaks to the earth and the earth absorbs its sweetness forever...
Trees grow tall, they see more than anybody
They grow older than all other living things
They live silent, yet, wise in the teachings of life
The good and the bad...
Accepting of what life has in store for me
Living one day at a time
Everyday I get older
As long as I live there will always be tomorrow
To live each day as they come
To savor the taste of fresh air
To see the sights my eyes are meant to see
To sit under the tree, where the branches and leaves live
To sit under its shade and listen to the birds enjoy their world of blue
That is living, that is wisdom
To know what I have and not take it for granted
To live everyday like my life might end tomorrow
To live my friend,
TO LIVE...

@RighteousBruin -
... Yes sir.
All in moderation, and in harmony with direction.
@sleekpunk - Yes indeed...
That is a gorgeous tree for a picnic. We should picnic like there is no tomorrow, too.
@starmanjones - Thank you.
water has an LD%) of roughly 90ml/kg for rats which is nearly impossible to acheive technically as vomitting would not allow this to easily be achieved. but it stands there is a toxicity for the very "water of life" this would mean 69 lieter of water for my weight class. 69. that's 3.83 divding for a or 19 gallons of water good luck. but to confirm the point you allude. hope sales are up sir..
