Better Than Planned Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Better than planned, is...
An adventured life to live.
Better than planned, is...
The unexpected.
Better than planned, and...
Remembered as being accepted.

Better than planned, is...
An adventured life to live.
Much better than planned, is...
A benefit received undetected,
With no leaving one with side effects.

Incredible is a distance one views,
When it is reviewed to reminisce...
Those experiences,
One unexpectedly at a time had visited.
And surprised one is by the gift.

So much better than planned,
Even if the doing had been predicted...
With or without details scripted to exist.
So much better than planned,
Are those moments in time we live to get.
