A deck of cards-
The cards of life
A few open
Some closed
A few candid sunny
Some mysterious dark.
A change in life
With the luck of draw,
A new friend,
A useful skill,
A fresh outlook,
A missed chance,
A dormant talent,
A misused gift,
A useless card that
Drops away with time,
Que Sera Sera,
What will be, will be!
Among discarded cards-
The unsung card
Horribly trampled
Underneath feet.
Miles in time to go
Before you know,
A fitting choice
Or the draw of death?
C'est la vie!
What can you do?
A new card awaited,
In childlike pizzazz,
Cards are drawn
And cards are dropped
Goes forth life
A happy bumpy ride
Bright open windows
Of the house of cards,
Hold back or dive in,
The gamble is fate.
Oh Kismat! Oh Moira!
