Untaken Opportunities
May the narrative of your life
be one likened to the torrents
of a creek surging eagerly
against the rocks and boulders,
bubbling, gurgling, splashing
down the slopes - -
so gleefully!
May it not be a woeful account
of many what-might-have-beens
shrouded in sorry, sordid tales
of last-minute, scared hesitations,
of wasted, untaken opportunities
now remembered - -
so ruefully.
