Poem

Life, in layman’s terms is merely that…life
It is a means to an end, a diversion of daily consequence 
A planned out, researched, blueprinted and stamped
happening that all of us, who are still here, live in

Life can be a series of costly calamities
or if you look past the requirements and rules,
a collection of charming patterns

They can be seen everywhere if you open your eyes
in a corn field row meandering through a sunny pasture,
crisscrossing lines in vibrant green that move in the wind

Or something as common as a brick wall, charming patterns
created to secure an area or set boundaries on a backyard garden
Each brick follows the lead of the one placed before it and
offers guidance to the next in line

Though some may not find them as charming as others,
it is all in how you look at them
A gathering of books on a shelf, high to low, wide to narrow
or grandma’s quilt…now you must agree, that can be very charming

To some, life is life and that is all you need to know, but to others
life is a series of charming patterns…finding them is like finding life itself
For it is what it is…make it charming
