As life

 we are challenged.

easy is a not a word

meant to be lived

but  uttered in hope,

the challenges we face

are made all the more arduous

by  the complexities inherent in

the human landscapes.

do we slither, bellies downward

or do we rise.

and not let complacency dictate our

every inaction,

as the moments we are present

melt into the larder

of a lifetime given to us.

we are of this moment

the morrow a twinkle in the

eye of a grander presence.
