The codicils of time
Frequently change one’s life
Giving new directions
Like the tune of a fife.

So often adding this
And too removing that
As one who dares to don
A many a life hat.

Such addendums to life
(The codicils of time)
Are countless in numbers
And proven to be prime.

Positioning the heart
To gain through persistence,
They bring new dimensions
To a shallow existence.
