Keep your eyes affixed
to the horizon and the waves,
but don’t turn your nose up
too far to breathe deeply.
Good luck takes many forms,
some as appalling as they come.
But take it all in
with an open mind,
and you will be rewarded handsomely.
Look twice at things that seem fishy
and thrice at things that appear fruitful.
You may very well
bump into your wildest dreams —
make sure to grab on tight
and give it your all.
You may need a shower
afterward,
but you’d have some gall
if you expected otherwise.
Be concerned with what’s at hand,
and the world is a little brightened.
Opportunity doesn’t always present itself neatly.
The things most worth your while,
are often unplanned.
