Acceptance
All must accept things; for what they are;
not, what we hope they would be;
although some might find it bizarre;
there are limits to our liberty.
Although we may choose a path to walk;
we cannot control where it leads;
some roads lead to where demons stalk;

Ageless
When young; our age is important;
one which we all address;
age affects our style or deportment;
when old; we are ageless.
Our physical body; ebbs; then flows.
having its own special seasons;
time decides when it comes and goes;
only God know the reasons.

…From The Same Seed
From the same seed; became everything;
all; leaves, from the tree of life;
including Summer, Winter, and Spring;
sorrows, tragedies, and strife.

…Ripples In The Water
We are the ripples on the river of life;
disturbances of consciousness;
sent to battle with sorrow and strife;
on our journey to righteousness.
Coming in waves; splashing ashore;
we are the modern generation;
many believe; we’ve been here before;
love is life’s foundation.
