Life on a quest, a curious mind - Unclear and uncertain, seeking to find
Exploring new thoughts, talents and skills - Accomplishing goals, exciting new thrills
Societal goals, contentional voice - I’ve given you will and freedom of choice
Finding new roads, paths to explore - Black and white life, There has to be more
Continue with dream, pride and self will - Ambition with talents, accumulate skill
Degrees and careers, create and design - Polished veneer appearing to shine
Storm clouds arrive, the first drop of rain - Striving now harder, experience strain
Rain shower now, foundation too weak - footings erode as flood waters peak
Darkness of night, no sign of dawn - Layer of snow, accomplishments gone
Grieving a loss, anger and guilt Will - I recapture the life I had built
Painfully still, confusion and shock - Flooding subsides removing a block
Inside the dark, new fears increase - Ironically bringing a glimmer of peace
Above in a tree, I hear a new sound - Song from a bird, music profound
Open my eyes, a ray from the sky - Birds all around, beginning to fly
Spring has arrived melting all snow - Creating new life with natural flow
Vision restored, now I can see - Colors appear as I walk free
Carried by grace, knowledge mature - Wisdom and purpose today I am sure
