Serendipity
Susan Melot
Call it coincidence, fate, or mere chance.
A happy turn of the dice, mere chance.
The odds are low you'll win the lotto
But why not throw your lot in — dare chance?
The path of a fairy tale, lined with minute clues;
Uncovered by a clever prince, not pure chance.
To sit under the tree with Isaac Newton
When the apple fell, insight ensnared chance.
A mistake led to islands of fine mold,
Fleming seized the yellow fruit of sheer chance!
Bad luck, good luck, in the end we help fate.
Error led Columbus' boats to steer chance.
Of existence will we solve the puzzles?
From stars wrought. An alchemy of rare chance.
The explorer may find diamonds or deceit.
Some eaten by creek crocs, caught by drear chance.
Take the Frost foot-path, clear of all footprints.
You may find unknown treasures of dear chance.
Risk the soft sanctum of your inner soul.
Susan left home so she could bestir chance
