Mock not my indiscretions.
Much can come from errored choice.
lessons oft come by misdirection,
So give me not the taunting voice.

Ask me when I am older
If my dreams have proven true.
Perhaps by then shall I be bolder,
Humbled e'en, maybe grateful too.

Should I never reach that status
Hold me not with disrespect.
Ask instead how life would shape us
Were we all so circumspect.

Do love me please for what I am.
Hold me dear for all I give you.
I really do the best I can,
Judge me not on what I should do.

Sunrise, Sunset.
Another Day.

New birth, Old death.
Another Life.

Music composed, Music heard.
Another Joy.

Soil tilled, Seed planted.
Another Miracle.

Wheat grown, Crop reaped.
Another Season.

Bird song. Silent wood
Another  Tragedy.

Death in the surf. Plastic bag.
Another Pollution.

What's the solution?
God Knows

— The End —
