Life Is Like a Maypole

The pole stands long and sturdy at the village centre old the ribbons lay afloat red,blue,green and white some bright and others light of which people grasp and frolick. Life is like a maypole varied paths to take happiness and sad times of which it is a part either vibrant or bland we hold on no matter what. ©Nadiya (12 Feb '15)
