Hand Of Fate I am lucky I have met my fate but it questions me if I can wait I have no control in this master plan when I placed my soul in fate’s hand |

True to the core. What fate is in store for each of us? Can we change it or has it already been determined....just waiting for the moment to arrive... Another of your thought provoking writes Helen... |

No control indeed. You have put a lot of wisdom in these few lines, helen. A bird never flies so high that it can't hit the ground |

helen? methinks this is where "faith" comes in...and I KNOW...and know you know that I know, if y'know what I mean...um, nobody mentioned that marriage makes you drop at least 10 i.q. points---grin... your poetry reminds me of flower petals falling in the wind... |

  (smiles) Oh Helen, this is lovely, sweet friend, I love this, I believe we all have some kind of fate but what we believe in also motivates us especially! (kiss on cheek) This is fabulous, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Helen, thank you for sharing!  May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

You succinctly express a popular feeling about Fate. Personally, I think "fate" is malleable. |

Extremely nice. I wrote a poem with some reference to fate some of the lines are What would I change in my life if I could Wondering if I really should Tempt the hand of fate and change what was meant to be Would that be a selfish plea Or maybe the change was meant to be To know what the future holds for you and me How do we change that which we cannot see |

I often think that their are several fates depending on the menu of choices one might takes. However, the menu is limited so take your choice if you believe you have any... Enjoyed this, thought provoking |

This is beautiful, Helen and I also agree that Paul's response seems to fit it like a hand fitting into a glove.  ~ rodent with sharp teeth, biting the hand of fate and giving you hugsLyra |

Funny thing is, being the sassy, overanalyzing one that I am, I question fate all the time, though still knowing that I should just shut my mouth and let things be. Wisely said, Helen! Take care, Melissa~ "Poetry is not an opinion expressed... |
