Unexpected gift

Life can be hard and

Often fate lands a cruel blow

At the worst of times,

Driving hard toward the precipice

Of despair

With lemming mentality

Begging to end.

 

Praying for miracles

Real or imagined

Reaching for fragments

Of hope to hold onto.

Making a wish on

The first star of evening,

Patiently waiting for

Grace to step in.

 

Who would have guessed

Or even imagined

The answer of answers

Was there all along

Wrapped with a ribbon and

Ready to open.

You…

My unexpected gift…

My friend.
