Perception
I have thought
about our condition.
And
we should think about life.
Few
can say if they will die tomorrow.
Our fate moves in patterns – with our choices.
It can be illuminated; some grasp it.
Ponder this. Be curious. Look.
And don’t forget Athena – with the olive tree.
You can remember others, if you like.
I like to.
Have a walk. Put on a coat.
I’m sure nature will improve your mood.
We all belong to the earth you see.
My understanding is that we have a life.
A wonderful possibility.
