Rumination

Life’s a conundrum of wills -

Riddled with the strife of tirades,

An endeavor against odds that instills

A trait of persistence that never fades.

Stark realities that question our grit -

Hurdles that weaken our fortitude,

A conscience that solicits to admit

That miracles can be wrought by the right attitude.

Life’s a labyrinth of enigmas -

Waiting to be inquisitively explored,

As it clamors to let go of stigmas,

Many victories to be scored.

This spirit warrants a celebration -

Of human endurance and zest

Which propels the wheels of dedication,

’Cuz that’s when we’re at our best.
