<p><strong>How Do You Feel?</strong></p><p><strong><br/></strong></p><p><strong>"<em>How does the bird do it?</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>Flying high in the sky with no fear </em></strong></p><p><strong><em>They say you act like what you feel </em></strong></p><p><strong><em>I feel like a bird but I hate heights.</em></strong></p><p><strong><em><br/></em></strong></p><p><strong><em>How does the horse do it?</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>Galloping into the battle field</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>They say you act like what you feel</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>I feel like a horse but I fear war.</em></strong></p><p><strong><em><br/></em></strong></p><p><strong><em>How does the lion do it?</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>Fearsome and strong , does the gun not scare it?</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>They say you act like what you feel</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>I feel like a lion but I fear death.</em></strong></p><p><strong><em><br/></em></strong></p><p><strong><em>I feel like the pigeon,</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>But the peace is too quiet for me.</em></strong></p><p><strong><em><br/></em></strong></p><p><strong><em>I feel like the eagle,</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>But I am the prey</em></strong></p><p><strong><em><br/></em></strong></p><p><strong><em>I feel like the elephant,</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>But act like the ant.</em></strong></p><p><strong><em><br/></em></strong></p><p><strong><em>I feel like the human,</em></strong></p><p><strong><em>But I am the shadow"</em></strong></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>One way or the other, we have all found ourselves in these shoes before so I am sure it fits. This poem explores the contradiction between what a person feels versus what they are producing. You have been there, I have been there , the question is, are we still there, planning to be there or never going there again?.</p><p>This note is not here to answer your question rather make you find the answer within yourself. I hope you enjoyed it.</p><p><br/></p><p><strong><em><br/></em></strong></p>
