Dowie

Today's word is "dowie" ... DOU-ee ... dull; melancholy; dismal. (Dictionary.com)

Which
Every day's a new look,
At what surrounds us here,
A chance to reframe what's before our eyes,
And decide what's really dear.

Every moment we can choose,
The dowie evil or the good,
And determine in a large part,
What's a "must" and what's a "should."

This will of ours is still intact,
And helps us to control,
Where we go, what we do,
And what virtues we extol.
