In the eye of a storm

In the eye of a storm

Finally a plateau

Someplace to catch my breath

To count fingers and toes

To assess the damage

Knowing there may be more

To find some new shelter

Now let the showers pour

Striving for potential

Striving for potential

Must find a bumper crop

Can’t stay at the bottom

Rise somewhere to the top

No rest in the valley

And always climb the hill

Living is a challenge

We’re here to test our will

No longer in motion

No longer in motion

At this moment, at rest

No problems, no worries

And no need to be best

The jumbles, the puzzles

The mysteries abound

Are coming together

Missing pieces are found

Not a cloud in the sky

Not a cloud in the sky

But a plane’s vapor trail

The two of us are free

Not hammering the nail

We were given a gift

A true crème de la crème

Like a shiny object

Or a jewel, a gem

I call out, call again

I call out, call again

No one answers, no friend

All I hear is the wind

I’m waiting so alone

Empty roads surround me

As far as I can see

Should I stay here or flee

The future is unknown

Baby blue autumn sky

Baby blue autumn sky

Early morning clouds that

Look like mountain ranges

But here the land is flat

The moon slowly setting

As the sun takes its place

And the storm has ended

While life resumes its pace

The work life eludes me

The work life eludes me
How can the working bee
Just enjoy the flowers
And not the drudgery

How to find contentment
Is it by decision
Can I propagate it
Grow it with precision
