Patterns
It seems some days are tessellations
A fractal recapitulation
Thus, for some, is desecration
Yet yields another's jubilation
And here have we a complication
A puzzle for just contemplation
Accept thy patterns with hesitation?
Or with joy ascend unto thy station?
See thou routines as desolation?
Or priceless gifts worth re-creation?
Are the fires of life a motivation?
Or an all-consuming conflagration?
Are the ticks of time your ear's vexation?
Or heralds who bear blessed proclamation?
Know the status of thy situation
Is not beyond manipulation
Contentment, hear this attestation
'tis a path now due our navigation
The Lord who laid this road's foundation
Will aid when bent toward deviation
They who steer toward Heaven's nation
Will find a sound orientation
God who set all in circulation
So sees us in our oscillations
And can redeem their ruination
Providing needed sustentation
Scattered pieces, 'tis our relation
Our days are such, in aggregation
The Lord, with humble fragmentations
Can forge his glorious constellations
