An unforseen event,
changing plans, changing everything.
Triggered by a flare of emotion,
someone behaving like a king.
The following relocation,
brings close what was so far apart.
Though language is between us,
we're off to a good start.
Meeting kindness with respect,
For respect given is respect earned.
Sharing meals, sharing joy,
Every day something new to be learned.
The winding roads that lead us,
to places we did not expect.
Where friends we didn't know we have,
are waiting for us to have met.
For life will just happen,
whether we want it or not.
The best we can do,
is allow us to be tought.
The Winding Roads
