Peter Dome Poet I do not know?

A Fools Downfall

A Fools Downfall.
.
Expectations are often the fools downfall
As nothing is guaranteed in life
We dream of tasty cheesecake
But end up with the crumbs
And don’t always get a slice
.
The happiest people that I have known
Are the poorest
Who have little or no expectation at all
They don’t make the most of what they have
And smile a lot
Because they know the secret of true happiness
Gratitude
And that makes them glad
.
I was a fool with high expectations
That never came to pass
I was in a race for love
And finished last.
.
