Let life surprise you [poem]


What is that prudent planning you do? 

You think life won't surprise you?

When it does,

Let it amaze and nourish your soul,

Be it joy, pain or grief- embrace it all!

Remember, you are a wave of the ocean,

Where else can you float, but to the shore?

~Sam

The shore, yes. Sam, your muse is working overtime, I reckon.

Joy always,
