O Life! Where art thou

                                         

 

O Life! Where Art Thou

At times, I wonder, O life,

To see your pace, your stride.

You leap and laugh

With the wind of spring.

You blossom and imbue

With the fragrance of morning dew.

You beam and shine so bright

With wintry sunlight.

You wish to share everything,

You love, you care.

I long to sing, O life, your song.

I wish to move along,

To share your secrets,

And unlock your magic casket.

Help me trace that font

That allures every truant,

Absconded with the pearls of moments.

Fill them with your radiant flare,

And give them a part of you—

A part of you that is

Fair and bright.
