Around the bend

Dan Johnson


Based on a life full of varied experiences,
Experiences preparing for good times and bad,
Bad only happened when not properly planned,
Planned always to win, glad life had a wide curve to learn,
Cause’ I’ve discovered life’s next adventure is waiting just around the bend.

Dan, what a great write! I'm not waiting when you get to the bend. Hell, I'm too busy rowing toward my own bend. But, we'll wave when we make the turn! - Bill

How true this poetry is to our every day life where the unexpected pops up but is prepared for and looking forward to an adventure that is just around the corner waiting for us to catch up with it.
