What Is
Our life is so much a make or break deal:
First we have what is Given,
A chance, a birth, mother, father,
Sister, brother, blood kin and people met.
A world is here where we wake each day
And find ourselves involved.
Then we have our own designs, of
Each moment a path, a care, a career,
We make something of time and trouble.
A life is lived, conducted, embraced,
Experience of what may be.
What is, what will become, is
Our dance of chance and choice.
