The Pearls on a String

A lifetime full of motley shades,
some vibrant and a few hued blue

Most transpired as expected events,
others unceremoniously undue

Expected storms can be endured
not the sudden gusts of the winds wild

With time one learns to ingest the toughest
but the mushy intake mild

Millions may be in reckoning
but with just a handful one does equate

Those reposing faith in your objectivity
and with you empathetically relate
