The Choices We Make

Choices We Make

The choices we make and the roads that we take
Are only a prelude to plans we can’t shake
The laughter we share both with kin and with heir
Leave indelible memories floating on air

No lummox can spoil all the fruits of our toil
Nor the seeds we are planting in rich fertile soil
So cherish tomorrows and minimize sorrows
And bank on the blessing that nobody borrows
