A Sudden Gift

A sudden gift upon a dusty road,
I hesitated, thought it might explode,
Or was it just another episode
Of my life’s unexpected puzzle mode?
How many minutes have I borrowed,
How many favor’s have I winnowed,
Dams installed and still the big river flowed?
My life rolled on by some mysterious code,
Until a sudden gift to me was bestowed.
