Sometimes the expectations of a journey Can be foreboding Even dreadful Does that make it a surprise When enjoyment arrives? Perhaps all aspects of life are similar But that doesn't help when as a natural optimist My journey is usually familiar Whatever my thoughts, the moment is key The wasted effort of worry and dread In essence was emotion inevitably led By confidence or the lack of connected thought For day to day incidences are often banal So shouldn't we make each trip much less fraught By living each minute for all it is worth.
