The Archer

by Phoebe

When an arrow is set and then fired from a bow

And you watch and you wonder just where it might go

As it disappears out of the range of your view

All you can do is move on nothing much left to do

But as night follows day and day follows night

We all live to a plan like that arrow in flight

We bend to the will of the Archer and then

We fly through the air knowing not where we end

The path that we take is a mystery until

We've completed the plan of the Great Archer's will

~Phoebe~
