Odds: two to one;

There is a little ditty thing
that comments on our here-life,
helps us in culturing
goodness to be rife,
to help us sing!
 
It’s not of my in-tu-it-ing,
in some ways it is “counter-”,
yet I have seen it bring
living love down ta
earth, & give wing
 
to sure-impossible giving,
to highest aspirations,
to new kinds of living
(and deprivations -
with their sieving!)
 
And yet it is but a picture
a faint mirror of the real
life that has no stricture
(not just what we feel).
So it tricks ya..
 
..when you focus on its surface,
forgetting it’s a window,
‘n’ it can’t do the same service -
to let the light flow,
not un-nerve us.
 
Our choice as husbands & as wives:
live for a bigger body
(home for some bigger lives),
or else; those shody
small selves, small dives!
 
The little ditty goes like this:
“Life’s story brings a point where
a bloke should bail from his
Dad & Mum, to care
for wife - NEW LIFE.”

Dimensions: one to two!
