Life

Life brings many things;
changes, possibilities, things unknown
to traipse across the tapestry of our fragile minds.
Curious hearts
can contain uncertainty
yet be wholeheartedly open
and determined to the end.
Preoccupied by dreams
that focus on each waking moment
while lost to the hazy mystery
of opportunities that are blown
with our very last breath.
The dead end road we reach
when we turn away
from the bounty before us
that is called life.
