Pollen Count
Pollen count was very high today
Must be
Because my daughter was sneezing a lot
Her eyes were swollen.
I was worried about her.
I was more worried about
The poor pollens
Millions of them
Like the desperate lovers
With half of the information
Seeking desperately the other half
To make a genome complete again
To enjoy in life once again
The sunshine, the winds etc.
But alas,
On their destined paths
Millions of fish eggs end up in caviars
Not giving rise to off springs
Millions of sperms
Millions of watermelon seeds
Pine pollens
Does not bring about a new life
I worry about the poor DNA strands
Weathering dehydration
And decay
Like my cells in my old age
Minutes of my life
Like the pollens and eggs
Recycling but in a catabolic path
I stand here embracing
The composition
Of life orchestra
And
The decomposition
Endlessly
aimlessly
Making me ponder
About the pollen counts.
