The Adventure of Life

a freedom to be
to share and to see
our eyes are our own
and experiences are sown
into the very fibre of our being

come play and be happy
child-like, fresh and loving
curious, open to the new
friendly and unstable
until confidence is found

a rebel is born to test his environment
running, bouncing from shifting stones,
rolling logs, tempting the impossible
growing, loving the exhilaration of speed
and newness of discovery

sometimes a detour
sometimes a rebuke
but love of life always wins
it is not about luck
but possibilities

remaining the dreamer
the what ifs that might be
imagining and wanting
growing that tree
of abundance and
ineffable love
