You know
life’s not in a box
tied with a bow
not a one size fits all
not just checking a box
not a wanderlust ramble
or a preamble to gamble
life’s an unfolding puzzle
each piece is a chapter
each moment is a capture
each second filled with rapture
things a newborn should know
about life’s mishmash of a show
