Serendipity

I inhale forgiveness.

And exhale all my vengeance.

Like taking a word from my right ear,

And throwing it out from the other

It hurts to say this:

Saying "Marhaba" to misfortune with warm hugs

Know why I do this?

I wait for serendipity

To surprise me with a confetti of lilies.

I'll fly with each petal...

But,

Why do I forget that there's always a purpose behind an accident?

This is a wonderful poem and made me smile at the irony at the end. Great job on this enlightening bit of poetry.
