Destiny

When clouds of reality arrive early
At the dawn of life unexpectedly
When unpleasant truths come to light
That's when life becomes a fight

The vision of reality weaves a destiny
Though it's not discerned by a heart that's tiny
The young heart stands though alert to the challenges
While the others hop by and play unawares

As the years drag on and the heart expands
New roads emerge stretching their hands
Destiny keeps its check on the heart that looks on
And accompanies it while it strives on

Though many unsolicited bleak curtains come down
Seemingly to make the heart once more frown
It has been enriched from the dawn of life
With purpose, God has woven the fabric of life
