Notes About The Poem

A Future Unseen

Will I get my dream job, car, or home?
Each instance of fate hangs upon whim,
Like that of the bluebirds, born to roam.
Will I get my dream job, car, or home?
Amidst the questing, time's often flown,
For chance dwells in a region, very dim.
Will I get my dream job, car or home?
Each instance of fate hangs upon whim.

A fun write/picture. Many times we only want something. Then get it and are unhappy. Happy New Year 2023.........................

Yes, sometimes what we want isn't what we need at all. Thank you for the fine compliment. Happy New Year! :)
