Paradox of Life

Hectic tranquillity is what I feel today 
Is it one of Nature’s habits or just a game? 
I wonder … I float… there is no aim…
It is part of the game, I learned that today…
 
To Confusion I must not surrender…
Yet Perplexity is the essence of Nature…
Beauty lurks in its subtle torture…
If I learned a lesson, it is my wisdom to render….

Optimism has always been a trait of mine 
To play the game & aspire to win 
Is how I will always outshine
All much to Her Chagrin…
