Analysis of How Fortunate We Are

Life is all over, whether we realize it or not
Searching for food at virtually every lot

Whether its raining, snowing, humid or hot
All of them seeking their most favorable spot

Swimming, flying, grazing, and stalking
Foraging, hiding, and silently talking

All of them surviving this trek of time
Which could abruptly cease at the drop of a dime

But they persevere through adversity’s ordeal,
While all that is around them probes its next meal

And as far as we can see, life is sparse and rare
As we monitor and probe it for a glimpse or a stare

Although here at home, life is varied and diverse
Through selfish intrusion, we’re its greatest curse

Ignorant of how truly fortunate we are,
Of this abundance of life, from our local star
