Analysis of Embracing The Dance Of Fate And Free Will
Joe Strickland 1986 (Hobbysville, SC)
In the distance, fate looms,
Our own destiny, we carve.
Strong enough to steer our ship.
Uncertain future lies ahead,
Yet we possess the power,
To mold our own destiny.
Embracing the dance,
Between fate and free will,
We seize each fleeting moment.
But sadly, our dance is brief.
