I awoke today.
Awoke into a world of adventure,
Into a world of the unknown.
What was going to happen?
I didn’t know,
I never know.
Plans may be made
But this day may be changed,
Changed by chance,
Changed by circumstances,
But this is what makes life so wonderful.
Although the unknown may be frightening,
It can also be exciting.
The day may be fraught with danger,
But it is more likely
To be filled with wonder,
With wonder, beauty and love.
So each day I awake
I am filled with wonder,
Wonder and curiosity.
I awoke today.

Every day is a bonus - great work Andy
Thank you Michael, they surely are.
Good write and pic Gold. I awoke to rather angry red sky - Red sky in morning, shepherd's warning?!
I too saw the red sky, no longer there due to the clouds and the rain!
Thanks ANDY ~ another perfect blend of Poem 'n Pic ~ Love both. ! "Every day I wake ~ I know it is going to be a good day" I figure you would have to be retired to be able to say that with confidence ? Roll on 2053 (70 !) Yours BRIAN
Been retired now for over five years. Enjoying every day if it.
