Unwind

Our days are numbered in dark we pine
the ink we lay makes for great light
turns we take in word we create,
brighter are our days as we fight
the tendency to give up our dreams
and you, this is how it seems
to grow like the weeds that entangle our feet
bring us home at the end of the day
how long will we wander in the sweet
notion that we can control our destiny
raise your head, take a deep, deep breath
for we may never know more or less
What are you?  Who are you?
Do you know your mission in this old world?
Why do you ask and get stuck in frustration
When there is so much to enjoy in elation?
Cross your fingers, it is time to get on the boat.
Wave to those you leave behind

And let the clear light of day unwind.
