Sometimes I see the clouds part
Pierced by sunlight, scattered shards
The sun burns a bit more bright
And for a second life seems alright

Sometimes the radio gods have mercy
They play that tune, the one I adore
So when I sing, my body sings with my voice
And for a second life seems alright

Sometimes amidst the jungle of concrete
I see the valiant blossom of lovely flowers
I feel greeted by the beautiful visitor, nature's might
And for a second life seems alright

Sometimes when I catch other's eye
There's a mirrored wave, a genuine smile
You don't need familiarity to be nice
And for a second life seems alright

Sometimes what I crave is what I get to eat
It doesn't happen often, a rare treat
But when the taste unfurls & I satiate my appetite
For a content second life seems alright

Maths may be my enemy but I do try to add
These small seconds where I'm incoherently glad
I throw my head back to the skies and laugh when I realize
That darling, this is a pretty **** wonderful life
