A Flip of a Coin

A Flip Of A Coin

A flip of a coin, destination unknown,
A path a direction a goal.
Where, why, what to do,
And when to do the deed.
Up or down, left or right,
Or will you just stand sill.
Knowing not who you are,
Nor who you wish to be.
Look, observe, ponder a path,
Direction still unclear.
The wind still blows, the world turns,
Regardless if you move.
To have meaning in ones life,
One must take the dice and roll.
Where? Who knows. Why? Why not.
When? That for you to decide.
Direction will come when a decision is made,
When made your journey begins.
Make your choice and take a step,
Upon the flip of a coin.
