Greenish esoteric eyes silently perceiving world's surroundings
Vivid sparkle portraying heart's desire in the depths of her being
Innocence present in her pale, trembling hands resting in her lap
Awaiting opportunities to grasp and promising moments to seize

continuing her safe path leading towards fulfilled hopes
Not once deflecting, strengthened by unconditional love for God
For He will show the way she has been chosen to follow in life

Tick tock tick tock…can’t you hear the t-i-c-k-i-n-g of the clock?
Whoosh…did you see that? Your life has just passed you by

Risks can’t be avoided in the game of life, neither can failure
Experience both and overcome the obstacles to reach goals
Dare to think outside the box and trust upon yourself alone
But you chose to neglect your true colours and simply wait

I do pity many for only seeing black and white in mystery of life
Yet congratulate them for not being caught up in shades of grey
