The unexpected and undetected
The things we do not anticipate
But the beautiful melodies that life creates
The gifts we do not see coming
The blessings we are too buried to see
I suppose this is why expectations
Never proved favorable for me
To this I can attest
I most certainly agree
The expected is willed
Like trying to make a plant grow
But the plant just looks at you
Silly human
There is so much you do not know
Why can’t you be all that I ask
Give me shade with no questions
This is your task
But the tree said nothing
Holding out hopelessly
When will this human learn
It is best to just let things be
The anger we express
The constant disconnect
The control we feel is just an illusion
Expectations lead to false conclusions
So why do we use them
We assume without knowing
We damn ourselves and others when things can’t be just so
But did it ever occur to you
Maybe the biggest gift is beyond anything we could ever know
It is the unexpected miracle
The synchronicity of things falling into place
When you finally surrender
The fruits of life you will finally taste
But you must wait without warning
Without the promise of something magical
For that would be expected and illogical
You must sit and just be
And let the wonder of life
Show you your fated destiny
Super good, Dani.
