Possession

What is ours
to have and hold
among each waking dream

Tiptoeing along
unaware 
of the fragility of the seam

Boisterous 
and confident
we claim our place in time

Not looking back
we fool ourselves
that we should never have to climb

But life just doesn’t
work like that
a nice, smooth stepping path

It’s full of peaks
and valleys too
we all must feel some wrath

Please don’t lose heart
it’s not to say
this is just a futile stay

There’s meaning in
each breath we take
So much wonder in each day

Open up
to what’s around
regardless what comes your way

Then in this world
You’ll find the space
To relax, and smile,
                                      and play
