Life Can Be a Turnip or a Rose

Just a little something fun. No format or meter.

 

Life can be a turnip or a rose -
One can give sustenance or beauty.
Life can be a feather or a brick -
One can go gently or break a window.
Life can be red or blue -
One can have passion or compassion.
Life can be a fox or a rabbit –
One can hunt or be hunted.
Life can be phone call or a letter –
One is right away, but then what have you got?

 

 

Life can be…
All things being equal, I’d rather be an apple.

Hmmm... why an apple? Because it is the object that embodies sin in the Bible, or because it starts with the first letter of the alphabet? Curiouser and curiouser... :)
This is interesting. So different from your other work.
