Dots of Life

Life's not easy
a pattern you can't erase
The dot to dot you must trace
Flowing lines, paths you must take
Everyday, wondering where it strives
Pacing steps; dots you reach,
Now, the dots, those are more
You'll remember those, evermore
moments that touch your deepest soul
Holding on til you go
Walk on o'er Heaven's gate
Placing before God all bared upon your plate
Saying this in my life,
Just wait, it gets nice,
I had a child, became a wife
This is the moment I saw her smile
I added three more amid the miles
Taught them to walk
One foot at a time
To create patterns that won't unwind,
Though they'll wish moments wouldn't bind
Later they'll realize the strength it creates
Hitting hardships of absolute strife
Metamorphic dances then begin
Flying from the chrysalis transformed within
Whether positive or negative seeds
Moments create the patterns we weave.
Only dots are what we see.
The brightest moments of them all
Shining forever like the stars.
