What a Choice

When I was a child,                                                                                        
which doll would I play with.                                                                       
When I was a teen,                                                                                 
which boy would I date.                                                                            
After graduation,                                                                                                                                                                                                        
which job would I take.                                                                                           
My wedding,                                                                                                                    
the day would be in the month of.                                                                   
Kids will come,                                                                                                
first a boy or a girl.                                                                                       
Life is filled with contemplation,                                                                        
pick one and pray for the rest.
