Once Upon A Lifetime by gramalot8
Rhyming Poetry Contest contest entry

Once upon a lifetime ... a man…

Thought he found a stick!

Or maybe it was just a twig?

Wondering… 

Is twig or stick that thick?

Deciding to exam it closer…

A fallen branch from off a tree?

Or if hatched off by chopping ax

Then kindling it might be!

Once upon a lifetime… a man…

Found a twig or stick!

Guess it really doesn’t matter..

He tossed it aside… too weary to pick!


Author Notes
Saw the photo and got inspired to write a philosophical piece. Decisions are debated everywhere everyday.
