"Om Shanti Om"

This site may load slowly at times because of the numerous (intentionally) large images. We beg for a little patience.

Trees

I wonder about the trees.


Why do we wish to bear


Forever the noise of these


More than another noise


So close to our dwelling place?


We suffer them by the day


Till we lose all measure of pace,


And fixity in our joys,


And acquire a listening air.


They are that that talks of going


But never gets away;


And that talks no less for knowing,


As it grows wiser and older,


That now it means to stay.


My feet tug at the floor


And my head sways to my shoulder


Sometimes when I watch trees sway,


From the window or the door.


I shall set forth for somewhere,


I shall make the reckless choice


Some day when they are in voice


And tossing so as to scare


The white clouds over them on.


I shall have less to say,


But I shall be gone.

-- Robert Frost
