My life is as it happens to be Happening as it happens to me But to explain it or complain Is to miss it happening again Being as it is and seeing how Albeit improbably now I happen somehow to my surprise But happening to feel As it happens what is real It was the hard way many a mile To come anyway though with some style I gave the slip to the fetter Of fear to come here and be better So becoming here now this is how I would stay if I could awhile Because this is it I realize My happening to be As it happens happily Steven Curtis Lance   Image by Franziska
