Until It Unfolds
by Michael Doyle

Life's biggest projects
Are a lot to figure out.
Life success, not reject.
Even the best life has doubt.

Because of this or despite this,
We don't want to have a miss.
So we find ourselves pressing on
Until all our tomorrows are gone.

It's an uneasy process
That we begin by gaining access.
It's the strength of vision
That posits while lacking precision.

The worth is found in the efforts made,
And it's found by those who've stayed.
A labor of love is begun unknown
Until life sculpts into what is shown.

Fascinated, we push into the unknown.
Along the way, we find ourselves grown.
Looking at life as it simply passes,
So much is learned without school classes.

It's about making the time
To slip silently past the sublime.
Suddenly, we are confronted with meaning.
We learn that it is to be our own human being.

Success in artistry can be elusive,
However much we wish it were inclusive.
Our words are part of our journey.
Looking back, we find the clarity of destiny. 

Some learn in different ways,
Wading through the best and worst days.
Committed as you are to reach the right end,
You push through until you are your own friend.

We hunt questions that lead to answers found.
It's the pattern of life chased around and round.
The trick of this puzzle cannot be told.
We can't know tomorrow until it unfolds.
