The Best of It

I live on a fringe, a road, and a mystery:
a slip of something that was tossed to me.
With a sigh, I made the best of it.

On a list of things that were necessary:
struggle and power were not on it.
With a sigh, I made the best of it.

All along it was a storm:
with a start, a star, and a swirl.
With a sigh, I made the best of it.

Then You stopped and asked if I wanted
a lift along that road; no charge,
you said.

I sighed: We made
the best of it.
