Sonnet Xvi For a Good Life

SONNET XVI
FOR A GOOD LIFE

In a quest to be wise Lord, I’ve sought counsel,
I’ve sought for that priceless One,
That one rule that will answer to the question of A Good Life.

Exhausting an array of examples around,
Sampling for the kind of results we desire,
What we have now Is a conflicting compendium.

Hence, The Sage has dramatically dropped The Lead Counsel,
It is a scene of to your tents o Israel,
Be it unto You according to Your Faith,
There’s neither a hard nor a fast rule to life,
Listen to the voice of The One within,
He will guide, He’ll surely take you through.

So Lord, to You I trust my Fate,
Be it unto Me according to Thy Word.
