Duty

We do what we can
We try and try and try
Again and again
Life gets hard, so we bare it
Life gets dim, so we try to be a light
The results of our efforts
Are not ours to plan

Place a seed here, one there, and again
Sadness is such a sweeping
Anger an uproar
And Peace a faithful witness
This life is full and empty both
Hectic and slow..
We are here, are we not?
Lets raise a glass and toast
The triumphs and struggles
The unending race, the accomplishments
The small and well to do
The big and easy to decieve

Lets hoist our glasses and cheer
Jeer and laugh in total nonsuch
Lets love until we are ash once more
Forever yours

-M.
