Fate

For Three Word Wednesday, prompt words indecision, option, fate.

Fate

A part of Fate is the freedom of man. --R. W. Emerson

Fate beckoned, bowed
on one knee, while
a sycamore swayed
in the breeze. Long
fingers pointed either way,
momentous indecision.
Impossible to weigh
every blazing option;
Fate condescends,
leaves fall
where they may.
