Tree of Happiness, Roots of Sadness

The feeling of "Happiness" Would lose and would mislay its meaning if it isn't balanced by the feeling of "Sadness"

For you see

Sadness gives insight, Happiness gives climax

Sadness digs its roots for the happiness to grow its branches

Happiness is like an oak tree, growing high up to the sky

When the sadness bore its roots deep down into the core of the earth's womb

Both of these feelings are needed, and the higher the tree grows the deeper its roots dredges, simultaneously

The taller, the bigger the tree, the bigger the roots

As a matter of fact

It is always have been in symmetry

That has its balance.

Very profound words and beautiful imagery in this poem.Happiness rooted in sadness, each an integral part of the other- symbiosis. The positive and fragile balance. Lyrical and lovely. Loved this!

What I love most about this piece is that it sounds like one of the wise old story's past down from the elders.
I picture myself sitting around a fire as a child listening to my grandfather telling a story. One of life's lessons to hold onto forever. A story that lives on forever and never quits being retold!
I love it for its truth but also because it is nostalgic. Well done!

You have really used roots and tree as a nice symbolism to understand the meaning of happiness and sadness in depth. I really liked this and totally agree with the fact that happiness and sadness are equally important.

[Joey Nizz]

Thank you for agreeing and your for your review, and yes there has to be balance between the two, can't just only have one of them only.
