Serendipity, happenstance,
Time ripples free, you somehow glance,
In just that moment,
Just that line,
When circumstance lets things align,
Perfectly,
So that all is right,
Warms your heart, lets a smile alight,
Upon your face as if to say,
The Universe nodded your way,
Showed how wonderful it can be,
When touched by serendipity.
I just love the whole idea of serendipity. Good things do sometimes happen purely by chance. And I love the positive upbeat tone of this piece. Well done. 🙂
Thanks! The idea has been sitting with me since the other day when I woke after too little sleep, kind of grouchy and having to go to work early, to be greeted in the livingroom by my sister’s 5 year old granddaughter’s smiling face in my moving picture frame. I had forgotten to turn it off. The pictures change every few seconds, so I literally had to come out at just the right moment. It put me in a good mood immediately.
Moments like that can really set you up for the whole day.
I could do with a bit of serendipity at the moment – so could the stock market.
