No Surprise? Poem by Sarah Sisson

What kind of life would this be
if it weren't filled with surprise?

It would not have the mystery
and unknown plans, no eyes...

...would seek a future fantasy
and act out like a child.

No chance to see a benefit
or feel good and be wild.

The castaway that was not lost...
...the man that had no cares...

...would only live the parts of life
that could not have despairs.

But what would that world look like
if the seamless time would flow...

...in one direction effortlessly?
Everyone would know...

...the picture of the one future
and the times that would come out...

...in just another way that is the same
one would not doubt...

...that all the plain and simple
would be just one way to live.

The spice of life would just flee
and no wonderment would give...

...the mundane aspects of the way
we see the act of time...

...go in that one direction
no, the dull could not go find...

...a mesmerizing plan, .
a gift that gives throughout the day

Our lives would be predictable
and cares be thrown away.
