The capriciousness of destiny
at play I see in every day
like the sun that glows and disappears.

Fate ignores then reappears
and light begins to shine again.
How true this is for all men.

Believe as they may, in inherent powers,
destiny decides on whom she sh her blessings
and whom she keeps out of sight or might.

And when you think you have a permanent
guest is when she leaves you can't ingest.
to show how fickle is her very nature.

She leave you stranded despite your stature,
Smiling as she goes away.
