Deep and Shallow

5/9/16


Occasional fiascos
But onto higher plateaus
In the light and shadows
Near and far from plants of aloe
And in waters that are deep or shallow

One thing that is true
It'll begin to
Just like it always did do
Out of sight and in view
It shall cease and continue
I do not kid you
Everything faces problems and issues
But not everything is made of flesh and tissue

Not a fable
Anything with or without a tail
Will prevail
As well as fail
Up and down the trail
And on both sides of the table
As the boats float and sail
Among the whales
And other aquatic life with scales
