nostrils let oxzen
through flowing breeze
pumps back carbonoxide
blood rich in pigment sustains.
breath primes life
as chlorophil did to tree
a little increments
leads life longevity.
movement of air is thoughts
musings of suffering
in hiding sighs
relieves burdened heart.
a cuckoo on tree
modulate chords natural,
immortal song
that never dies with it,
carried on time immemorial.
lovers sighs
expresion of pleasure
exhale air,
ready for a vent
through reflex valves.
God created life in air
conferred privilage on earth
Moon thrives in everything
without iota of invisible air
transformed satellite lifeless.
life go as bubble
with thoughtless actions
we are cutting the branch
on which we sit,
when air fills with particles
let by rising chimneys,
making song into notorious cough.
Author notes
breath is what seperates living from other planets.Without this magnificient reflex, life extinguish. Breat in and breathout is all composition

I like the imagery flowing here. It felt a bit sterile, like a science class but I could see where you were taking it and I do like it. Good job of it here
