Life Is Always Under Construction

We put up tape

Where we 

Expect

To build

Our house.

We put up walls where we 

Expect

To

Create

Barriers.

We put up fences

When we 

Expect

To build

A

Play

Pen.

We place

Tile

Where

We

Expect

To

Freeze

Our

Toes.

We do things

When

We

Expect

Results

In

Return.

Life is always

Under

Construction.

But the construction

Stops

For

No

One. 

We are constantly

Building

A palace

With the tools

And

Materials

For

A

Shed.

It may never be

Enough

Pieces

In the moment,

But it’ll

Eventually

Be 

Enough

Pieces

To

Create

The

Moment. 

Give yourself

A hammer

And you’ll

Hit something

Into

Place.

Use a saw,

And something

Will be cut

To pieces.

Find a piece of wood,

And lay

Down the start

Of some

Foundation.

What we build

Is 

Up

To

Our minds,

But why

We build

It

Is up to our

Hearts.
