Confident Winner

She was a confident winner
Fantastic, amazing, stupendous!
She came out unscathed in every
social situation whether in the neighborhood,
at home or at work
She was a lucky chameleon!

He was a confident winner
His chess-playing was not fabulous, but
when he switched to Monopoly,
he became a maestro, a magnifico, a wonderman!
He always landed on his feet, holding the most
real estate – always Boardwalk and Park Place
with two mighty red hotels each!

They met, fell in love, and had offspring.
Their offspring derived confidence usually reserved
for the gods and goddesses of Zeus.  Who is to say
whether or not they were direct descendants?
They travelled their individual spiritual paths
upholding and promoting each other 
inspiring each other’s work, and loving the universe like mad.

Confident winners.
They are everywhere you look. 
It is up to you to find them.
The trick is to LOOK for them. 
It is well worth the effort!
