In the midst of duty and dreams,
Floats the boat of life.
In the midst of day and night,
Floats the choice of work.
In the midst of right and wrong,
Floats the choice of decision.
In the midst of good and bad,
Floats the choice of action.
In the midst of mundane and novel,
Floats the choice of willingness.
In the midst of duty and dreams,
Floats the boat of life.
