Framing my future
Hanging on the wall a picture, I do see
 It’s a picture in a frame, one of me
 The frame is plain,
 And the picture changes, but it is still of me
 Scenes of  what I would like to be…
 It shows the future and things that I could be,
 My mind is unfocused and confused,
 It radiates to the frame 
 And the frame it falls to pieces and is now a pile of shards
 Broken like a house of stumbling cards…
 The picture continues to change, 
 With no image of my clear future in range…
 Discouraged I focus on the frame…
 The photo keeps playing like a non stop game.
 Frameless is my future, 
 The one that I see, 
 So I frame it to decide what I shall be.
 One piece then two, 
 Making the frame of my future…
 To decide what I will do.
 As the pieces come together…
 The photo comes to a stop, 
 The frame is complete
 And the randomness does retreat,
 The photo stops on what I shall be,
 I look and I like what I see.
 I am a veterinarian,
 I help the animals, and the customers smile with glee
 As they thank me, 
 As they go on their way,
  I am satisfied…
 And because of their happiness I feel gratified,
 I make a difference.
