The path of life along its forked course
Does like a river flow from source to end.
At every branch, a choice is made, by force,
For no one knows what lies beyond the bend.
Some branches lead to channels safe and true,
And others into danger and despair.
The path is blind, and yet I pass on through,
For choose one must, or perish on the shore.
But choice, once made, is lived with to the last,
Until that day, o Life, when I’ll be free
To set my course, and I the die may cast,
When river joins the all-oblivious sea.
I seize this day: my goal is far remote;
So through this stream of life, I steer my boat.
-- Joel Figen ‘62
