Analysis of Quandary
Joe Strickland 1986 (Hobbysville, SC)
Free will whispers soft,
Choice woven like fragile thread,
Paths diverging wide.
In our hands, the power lies,
To shape destiny's embrace.
Fate's winding pathway,
Guiding us towards our path,
Fortunes intertwined,
Though our steps may be unknown,
Destiny's hand shapes our lives.
