I Like Surprises

I like surprises.
Not everybody does, but I do.
I like not knowing exactly where things are going.
And I prefer to believe that things will turn out just right,
Better than just right, in fact, that they will result in a thing
Far better than I can expect or hope for, or create 
Through my limited means and wits.
And I like to think that I am not 
The creator of the good fortune,
But that it is just that: good fortune,
And that it comes from above,
The divine reward of faith and trust.
And that seems to work for me 
To spite the times when it appears that it has not. 
And to spite even that, I still like surprises.
