Heads Or Tails

Under cloth of night these eyes do ache Holding hope in breath of life Take back the way of the wind Over trampled trails in time Meandering in my mind Included but not secluded To repeat an ancient rhyme

Oh the meandering mind! A riddle forever I suspect, at least inside this skull. Fun sometimes, other times, not so much. cheerios amigo!

We can keep flipping that coin and hoping it lands how we want or we can just put it in our pocket and realize it is only change and change happens. Nicely expressed Tim.

Filled with imagery that makes a simple idea profound. Fine work.
