Young lovers cuddle

Set in their ways like
migrating birds by instinct
Young lovers cuddle
Strike on opportunities
Making good life worth living

Do not be alarmed
Inclement of weather is
unpredictable
Hot and cold like good ladies
Always a challenge

Gangling and confused
Lost in the woods not knowing
Forwards or backwards
Such are those drunk with power
Wondering how to remain wild

For Chev's CARPE DIEM #54 - lost in the woods
