The Green Tunnel

Green Tunnel acrylic on canvas (2ft x 4 ft) AVRotor 2017             

When life becomes unbearable living in a jungle of concrete;
when pressure of work is taking its toll and you may be the next,
don't tarry, reach out for the green tunnel;

when the air is filled with smog and you hardly can breathe;
when crime grips the street, you feel you're no longer safe,
don't tarry, reach out for the green tunnel;

when you are losing your friends and you feel sad and lonely;
when you are no longer enjoying the so-called Good Life, 
don't tarry, reach out for the green tunnel;

when you ponder over the promise of afterlife as a tunnel, too; 
when there is time on earth to seek its living counterpart,
don't tarry, reach out for the green tunnel;

when you shall have found your way to this heaven on earth;
when and where man once found peace and contentment,
 look back, but revere this green tunnel.
