Seeming aimlessly, always purposely,
Only stopping when rest demands.
Sipping the nectar of life’s sustain,
Knowing nature is always the same.

There is no thought of life is cruel,
Full of pain at times endure.
Nor all is bliss to given few,
Only impartial is the rule.

To make the way from day to day,
Accepting what’s given with stoic calm.
For there is no changing what is done,
Testing is given at every turn.

The moment is there, so live it best,
Tomorrow will come with rising sun.
Grasses will grow, flowers will bloom,
Life comes forth, then passes on

Cycles arrive with passing moons,
Nothing is permanent it's only to be.
Enjoy what is, to hearts content,
Butterflies can tell you on passing life’s test.

Logan, a wonderful philosophy, but I have no stoic calm!
Full of wisdom, as always, your poems and replies.

Dear Logan...This is so true! Oh, but what a joy to read. Everything you write is sweet perfection and another read to be cherished.
Thank you sweet gentle man.

Logan--Life is full of passing cycles..each the same yet differing in color and climate like we, changing yet the same, and now is always passing so quickly.  Enjoy your views on life, my friend.

This is so very good...as long as people realize that they make their own tests, and it's always "open book" time, then they can always make the grade...

Well done Sir...
