My contribution to Writer's Island - Over the horizon
Pondering over the possible outcomes
At times adventurous, at times scary
over the horizon, in the days to come
hoping for the better, yet not ready
inevitable changes in the path of life
embrace the thorns, not just the roses
scholars say so; pains induced vary
a drop of blood or a permanent wound
praying for a canvas of colors
let the brightness spread joy,
looking for the purpose of existence
let the peace empower the progeny
no more inhibitions and fears
the horizon is to be faced,
giving shape for a much larger horizon
A cyclic process, yet not predictable
