Right by this moonlight I swear..
Nothing in life ever really failed me.
The stars were always right there..
& in the right directions winds sailed me!

A tempest did devastate the ship once
U couldn't tell the deck from the keel.
Yet something kept me afloat..
& fate saw me through the ordeal

For whatever I lost to the sea that day,
Of 'courage' I became a keeper.
I could swim against the tide if need be,
As my strength had manifested deeper!

I have not one person to thank for
my time that stood it's test.
For it was the universe's interventions
That brought forth in me my best!

If it weren't for these permanent changes
& the impermanence of everything around.
How could I have evolved into this being
seeking love profound ??
