“The whimsy of early middle age.”
What I learn, is what I gain,
because I see years ahead,
and years all gone.
In casual victories,
I tighten my reigns
on my life’s core
so it shall last-
on the rough roads ahead
and the unbalanced waves.
Sojourning upward,
the only direction for freedom
the welcoming stations around,
and sharpened careers found.
