No one can escape it

The fickle finger of fate

Some think they can avoid it

But it’s patient and it waits

Just when you drop your guard down

And think you’re doing well

It bites you on the bottom

And makes your life a hell

It’s part of life’s grand vision

And some they can foretell

Just when that sticky finger

Upon you it will dwell

But like the clouds above you

In time it will move on

But the things you thought were certain

Alas they will be gone.                

May your lessons in life be small and over quickly…..
