We’ve all had this happen, me too.
Best of luck on your search for a home, Ed.


Poem Artwork

 Left Field

It came from the left-hand of time,
just out of sight, to the right.

It came without rhyme or reason,
or sound, or season, but…
the time just wasn't right.

It just came, like the night.

It upset the nature of things,
throwing plans out the window,
putting them on new wings.

So is the order of things.

You sensed it was coming,
but don't.
You denied it was so wrong,
but won't.

Reality is now upside down,
you smile, but inside… you frown.

Your up has become down,
all because it came,
out of left field.

Blindsided or not left field is trouble, unless of course you are ambidextrous. Patrick

Yes, it is funny how those things out of left field have such power over us, lol. It's a good thing though, because it keeps us on our toes and ready for change whether we are or not, lol. Blessings, Ron.

I liked the arrangement and the flow of the lines, the topic is engaging and the title really appropriate. The unexpected always takes us by surprise and challenges the reflex...which sadly slows down with age :-) Cyn

It always seems to happen this way, doesn't it? Things are going great and then "blam" life smacks you right in the face......

Powerful write, the unexpected sure can turn things upside down, and completely change the path you were on. God bless. Baz

Ron, what a splendid out of the blue. Massive storm, flood, fire whatever. We are never fully prepared no matter what. So when "out of left field" happens to us, we have to regroup, rethink our positions and adjust accordingly. A call for increased awareness here my dear friend. I bid you love and peace. Jon Michael
