As they
come.
Taking
the years
as they
come.
Day one,
gift.
Beating
the odds.
Birth.
To be,
even
to be.
Miracle!
Fell into
place.
It all
fell into
place.
To even
be.
Allotted
time
precious,
unique.
What
to do?
This
existence,
highs and
lows.
Take them
as they
come.
Some good
some bad.
Navigation
will be
difficult.
Storms
and gales
will blow.
At times,
holding
on for
dear
life.
Calmer
seas will
return.
Sunshine.
Experience
it all.
Miracle!

Provided.
Reality as
provided.
From a
human
perspective.
Limited
in scope.
Derived
through
a finite
lens.
Seeing,
learning
what’s
allowed.
Finite
capacity
to know,
understand.
Constrained
by the
minimal.
Five senses
provided
to know.
Know the
infinite.
Curbed,
finite
mental
capacity.
Confined
in space
and time.
Boxed in.
Working
with what’s
been given.
Narrow.
Slim
range of
understanding.
One tree
in a
vast
grove.
Governed by
minimal
assets.

No choice.
All in.

Entrance
unique.
­Accident
of birth,
genetics.
Generations
in the
making.
Generation

Such is
the state
of things.

Fields
of
creation.
Uncertainty.
Ripe with
possibility.
Permeating
all.
Time,
space
encompassed.
Quantu­m
foam.
Here and
there.
Gone
then
returns.
Undulating
pulsing
ripples of
the gods.
Energy.
Vibrations.
Spark.
Energy
to
matter.
Evolution ‘s
birth.

zero.
Freedom
reigns.
Moving

Knowledge
booked.
Memories
fade.
Departing
this
location.
­Gliding
to a
different
place.
Sails
unfurled.
Plying
unknown
cosmic
seas.
Ne­ver
over.
Never
done.
Infinite
wisdom
to be
marked.
Endless
shores
to
explore.
Each stop,
ripe with
potential.
Unlimited
possibilities.
Never ending
quest.
Everlasting
