Tree of Life
You won’t find me changing
But growing
I’ll be sprouting up
And rooting down
But never fully knowing
Until I’m given back
To earth and sky
Mine isn’t to know why.

The eternal question of the individual's place in the scheme of things - brief and to the point.

I like this Natalie; i wouldn't mind the odd comma or colon though, being a sucker for pauses.
Incidentally, i'll ask you the same question someone once asked me; why do you start all your lines with capitals?

Yes, no one truly knows ! The quest for meaning, for existence is never going to end.
Very enjoyable.
I enjoyed this. Much like a tree, it is represented simply but is much more complex in nature.

Agree about the capitals. They do not make sense when reading it through albeit a poetry license thing too.
