Lessons of Life
As fortunes wax and wane
In life’s large swells and swales,
We try to ponder and remain
The person who, in youth, prevailed.
But our youthful views have changed,
And our existing needs do not entail
What, when young, were hopes retained,
Leaving our childhood dreams still veiled.
Though life created who we are,
We, as people, made key choices
That made us follow fateful stars
While ignoring more pragmatic voices.
And while our souls did ebb and flow,
We went where were forced to go
And searched for truths so we would know,
What lies beyond fate's plan bestowed.
