Like The Dew
Some things we do to avoid the fuss,
Or we do them because we must.
Our "Yeses' don't always make sense,
But saying 'No' is harder to convince.
Most times we find ways to compromise.
Either way is never going to be paradise.
The smartest apple may not be on the tree.
It may be in the kitchen tasting sweet and free.
Or it could be that it has fallen from the tree
And just beside your feet, it rests in the dew.
May you live long, genuine, happy, and true.
May you be as faithful as the morning dew.
