Life can surprise you!
I think THAT's
what I really want
to tell You today.
Anything Can Happen.
We say that,
and shudder;
We hold our loved ones
closer and say a prayer
or charm.
Yes, Anything
can happen.
And that includes
unseen blessings
out of a bright blue sky-
or even BETTER:
a grey & stormy sky!
What a difference
a Day makes.
"Don't cry for the one
that left you,
the next one might
fall for your smile."
counselled Mae West.
And she was right.
Today is a treasure,
just to exist.
And sometimes
it explodes with happiness.
That's part of Life too!
Don't discount a Serendip,
or turn away
a Heff-a-lump.
You just might find
that lucky clover.
It could happen!
After all,
I'm wishing
YOU
the best!
Fondly, cloudia
