Notes About The Poem

'' ESTUARY " MY PHOTO, ©

May be an image of twilight, nature, coast, sky and ocean

Following One's Destiny

Against life, one should never revolt
 
But

Obediently he ought to follow her wise lead to

Wherever she decides him to take

For

Life knows better one’s nature and the laws

That govern it

Thus

One has to become as complied as the waters of the river

That

Follow the river’s banks all the way to the

Estuary,

Never trying to hinder the waters’ flow but

To hasten it

For

It is the only way, one, could his destination sooner than

Later reach

And

His destiny's goal to realize!

As you correctly point out, my friend Demetrios, our life path has already been planned out for us; all we have to do is embrace it now. Every single poem you compose is brimming with valuable pearls of wisdom. There's always something to learn and use from what you have to say. Thanks for sharing.
