Welcome unexpected blessings,
Always.
Welcome
The robin song echoing from a twig,
The smile of a cute face down the street,
The nurturing scent of fresh soil,
The smooth fragrance of olive oil.
Welcome
The acrobatic seagull in the wind,
A blotch of sunlight above grey clouds,
Dead leaves dancing in a whirlwind,
The morning sky that mistily clouds.
Welcome
A heron gazing at the pond like a king,
A crow flying on the black magic wing.
But not all of them look like a blessing,
Some are disguised and unleash hurting.
Things in life, perhaps, don’t happen to you,
What if they happen for you?
Welcome unexpected blessings,
Always.
