Un-expectations...

With two unexpected days off I am allowing the pen to laugh at the clock and dance on the day…

whilst rearranging the eggs in the nest;-)) I think I'll bake because everything I baked last week has disappeared!

Un-expectations are like invitations we are sent

To test the will and want of Quest; our faith and trust and grit

And then we are reminded that all we embrace is lent

And we should never overlook the Hand that renders it

Un-expectation startles us; it changes Plan and Dream

And causes us to reconsider what we thought we knew

It tests our boast; it challenges what we highly esteem

It teaches that life is an unpredictable ado

Un-expectation, we come to expect its sundry ways

But still, its ‘hello’ takes us by surprise, we must admit

It’s hard to acclimate to sudden, rearranged Todays

But it reminds us to depend on He who renders it
