OPTIONS

You have the world before you

all the options on God's great Earth

are yours for the taking.

All of existence are low branches on a tree

prepared for you to pluck what you want

and when.

Men wait before you on dessert trays

hoping to be selected

as the sweet thing you savor tonight

(Girls are available, too

to one such as you

- and donkeys!).

You have nothing but time to take

and choices to make.

Yours is a glorious life

filled with thrills

and opportunities

and actions yet to be made

and I look forward to seeing what you do

watching your paths

waiting

for your first misstep.
