The Wonder of Life’s Mystery by John Herlihy A story is written A story for each of us A story we don’t know A story we come to know Shoes for walking that we fill Choices we make of free will Eyes with visions that we see Ears that listen to life’s melody Actions we pay for in life’s store Days that crash upon life’s shore Values we foster at our discretion Answers we find we never question A fabric we sew as an earned destiny Born from the wonder of life’s mystery - - - - - Copyright © John Herlihy Saturday 24 January 2026

Yes, "earnest destiny" could be said for your dedication to sharing thoughts and dreams that impact and offer new thought to many of us. Thank you for posting so often and giving this poet something to look forward to each day.

An interesting view of everyone's story. An autobiography will release some of that mystery.
