A Life's Work

As you draw nearer to life's end
you begin to consider the course
that life has taken. What is different
because you have lived? So, what?
Can you change the pattern of your life?
Only in one way, and that way differs not
from the options open to a youth
many years your junior. What can you change?
Only today. Yesterday and tomorrow
cannot be changed. But today can...
as to your own actions thoughts,
achievements...others are outside
your reach. But what cab you do today?
Some spiders build a masterpiece,
only to start again the next day.
Can you do a masterpiece today?
Yes, if you consider only your own business,
and surrender to a Power greater than you!
