Array ( [sid] => 5345 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Dry bonsai [time] => 2002-10-21 06:30:00 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I was born so small and negligibly,
but my wish is been one big tree,
to have a bigger view, like other trees did.
I want to be near infinite sky blue,
to nest a whole birds on my arms.
Yes, I most wanted all of this.
So I sprang up like the storm sprang up
and I striked deep roots everywhere.
And I felt wellfare, oh yes!
But soon came rainless
and sun shone with ful power.
I did like this moment for some time,
but the heat was unsustainabled.
My leaves began to dry
and I started to feel such a horrible thirst inside.
And all birds are gone away,
left me alone, more bent double and feebled than before.
I will never understood why,
But now I'm just a dry bonsai,
with dead naked brunches all around,
because suddenly I just decided to grow up.
