Choose life

Sometimes, I dream of a tree and the tree is my life.

One branch is the man I shall marry, and the leaves my children.

Another branch is my future as a writer and each leaf is a poem.

Another branch is a glittering academic career, 

but as I sit there trying to choose,

the leaves begin to turn brown and blow away

until the tree is absolutely bare.
