Start With A Rhetorical Question

Shall I start

each of my days

in my youth 

with a rhetorical question?


Like of Shakespeare

in Sonnet 18 

"Shall I compare thee to a summer's day.."


I shall start my life with a rhetorical say, 

"Was I brought for purpose, 

burden, 

worthy, 

or mistake?"


I guess I'll have to reject that

because no matter the 

number of times 

I ask and expect the same 

I would return the exact opposite. 



Lord only knows

because heaven drops 

a shooting star

in the ocean

every once in a while

sometimes, even by accident.
