The Two Swords

There are times in this world,
For pure satisfaction,
Embrace the moment like that's all there is,
To spur 'magination,

Then there are times to view the horizon,
Imagine yourself there,
Chart out the best route methodically,
For fortune does not come out of thin air,

just like there is no overnight success,
Without lots of hard toil,
If I'd figured that out decades ago...
Well, regret's the sole's soil,
Back to the world,
That is the horizon,
Let bliss be the north star that guides your way,
Just do the work to maintain your motion.
