A PECULIAR DAY

A PECULIAR DAY
It was a sunny day
A destination known
But not known at
The same time
When found it was closed
Our curiosity rose
We found it next to a
Restaurant we chose
A brewery incorporated
So home-made beer
Very delicious in snifters
We had nothing to fear
 
Dinner was light
Still early in the night
Too far to travel
We were not about to flight
Stopped at the Royale Inn
Just for the view
Plenty of folks there
I knew a few
Life has its twists
And I’ve been twisted
My eyes were open
I was being resisted
 
I wouldn’t like it
Any other way and
That is all
I have to say!
We made it home
I felt forlorn
The reasons
Unknown
I have faced it before
I know I am strong
Couldn’t figure out
What I had done wrong
 
The next day was fine
Like nothing had happened
We talked about what
Might have been
No apologies
Where would you send?
Life goes on
Like the river flows
Where does it end?
Only Goodness knows
Good turns bad
Bad causes frowns
 
One gets used to it
When dealing with clowns
Who are high one day
Depressed the next
The flow of life
Is often wrecked
But it goes on
Yes, life unfolds
There are no winners
As the story goes
Eagles will fly
Catch the morning sun
Reflections of gracefulness
And what could have been fun
