Notes About The Poem

3/14/2025 for Thrust in the centre of a storm, all I could see was you Poetry Contest sponsored by Anoucheka Gangabissoon

Lady Fate

Lucky, we are, when safe and warm, 
far from a calamitous storm, 
but, in danger, we say a prayer, 
seeking out that special one, 
hoping she is there,   
"We're slow.  We can't outrun. 
Please show us the sun. 
Don't vanish in thin air."

While I am blessed with many a friend, 
in hard times, I can depend 
on them, but in the end, 
when troubles are too great, 
and I see the black swan, 
and heaven's gate,  
and all my hope is gone, 
I put my faith upon 
my lady, Fate.
