Destiny: Life

Destiny: Life

I sit and ponder about things and wonder

When the sun rises, does it rise for me

To show me the beauty of my life; I wonder

Night stars a guiding light in darkness for I to see

This map of the universe; oh the days I curse

Lost in it’s eternity; because this map I can’t read

Missing the signs leading me back to the source

A life with you; how I should proceed

With the bumps in life’s road; causing me to fail

to be like the blind; who read life not with eyes

but with what they feel; like reading brail

only then can I prevail with everything I try

Trusting what I touch; believing what I feel

For; if common sense was just that

Common; then all life luster lost, with no appeal

This life to offer, nothing dynamic only static

I sit and ponder about things and wonder

When the sun rises, does it rise for me

To show me the beauty of my life; I wonder

Night stars a guiding light in darkness for me to see..

Life Cycles

At age 5 everything was why
At 10 sought knowledge often
At 15 I knew everything it seemed
At 25 for parties I strive
At 40 nolonger 30 so it seems
At 55 life's lesson I now comprehend
At 65 try to pass on knowledge gained;
in vain to the youth but they know it all so it seems...
