The Will to Continue/dVerse

The Will to Continue

I place the saucer over the cup
To steepthe “will” that is there

Soften
Strengthen
Deep
Rich
Strong

In line with its destiny
I don’t do it on my own
I need the “will” to

Survive
Continue
Seek
Celebrate

My life and yours

I like the thought of steeping the will.

Oh I like the originality of steeping the will and your staccato-like stanzas full of action verbs, bringing the will to life!
