Puppet Master

I am not a puppet master

I do not control the strings

I can’t make life go faster

I need to wait for what it brings. 

All the others on my stage 

Come each with their own lines

I can neither be their Mage

Nor change their life designs.

The more colourful the scenes

The less its in control

There are so many themes

Some fun some rather droll

So we can not blame a puppet master

Our choices are our own

Whether tears or healing laughter

It’s through these that we have grown
