Poetry by Kori Stricker

I wrote this poem as I was watching some squirrels play. I got to thinking, animals go through the same emotions we do. They have families, mothers who gave birth to them, but they can't cry or complain. They just can't express themselves through words like we can. I often wonder if that's a better way of living life...

We all want to find "The One" for us. Some of us spend most our lives searching for them. I guess I was a little discouraged when I wrote this. I think you can look at Love as good, or you can look at it like it's a disease. Either way, it's bitter-sweet.
