A philosophical Father’s Day poem
for a divorced and distant father about the relationship between choice and
chance:
Fortune is the child of
the will,
As what one chooses spins
the wayward wheel.
The choice determines
where the chance will fall,
Hurtling, bouncing like
that fickle ball,
Eluding what result would
most appeal.
Remember to embrace both
good and ill,
Since both are gifts, are
one, are you, are real.
