The Winds of Fate

One ship drives east and another drives west
 With the selfsame winds that blow.
 'Tis the set of the sails
 And not the gales
 Which tells us the way to go.

Like the winds of the sea are the ways of fate;
 As we voyage along through life,
 'Tis the set of a soul
 That decides its goal,
 And not the calm or the strife.

 ELLA WHEELER WILCOX
