By a Waterfall

By A Waterfall I met a man tall and handsome A lovely wife and children tandem No depression or illusions Just life with gusto no confusion Where did he come from What was he given Nothing needing to be forgiven Why not me You must agree There are good genes and bad genes Luck of the draw Subject to chance And Murphy’s Law You have to live with what you are given Strive to succeed where you are driven Accept it reject it Like it or not No use in fighting You’ve got what you’ve got August 2015
