WHAT IF

dVerse is back after a holiday break, and we’re
asked to consider “What if?”  I’m reminded of
Shakespeare’s “whirligig of time”.  It’s an age-old
question, is it not?  Here are my idle thoughts.

What if our life is serendipity like a leaf tumbling
in the wind.   What if we’re masters of our fate, and
where it all will end.   Life is long with many curves;
perhaps we’re presented a choice.  Or, is it simply
preordained .. when to weep and when to rejoice.
If, indeed, it’s truly left to chance, I have to
say in retrospect I’ve sure enjoyed the dance.
