Unexpected Gifts
Occasionally
The universe surprises you,
Undeservedly bestowing
Unexpected gifts.
As we plough through
The muddy messy roads of our existence,
Alongside the well worn ruts,
A pretty flower beckons.
We pluck this gift,
It brightens our life,
Put in our path to remind us,
Beauty and kindness lurk around corners.
If we walk eyes downcast
The gifts go unnoticed,
Unappreciated,
Wasted.
Sunsets and flowers in the muck,
Friendships and kindnesses amidst the cruelty
Unexpected gifts to enjoy,
As we walk our solitary paths.
