Here’s a short poem I wrote to ponder on…

Destiny is where we are bound, Is it surreal, Or just a fantasy that… Lingers on the edge of the earth, As sure as the dolphin… Swims in the sea, Or a joke of paradox, Going around swallowing, Up all of its victims.

Written in 2003 on the way to a funeral, it was a family tragedy that happened this time of year. My great uncle lost his life in a fireworks warehouse explosion. Sometimes things happen in life that can cause you to think more deeply. I hope everyone has a happy and safe 4th of July. :)
