Take it as it comes
Take it as it comes they say
As if you have a choice
To take it in alternate way
To speak a different voice
To look outside and see the view
Of distant hills and dales
If only this could come to you
Not to somebody else
You can’t be ready in advance
Though you might think you can
If you won’t take it as it comes
It’ll come to other men
If only it could be like this
You’d be the first to know
But once it comes, a few brown leaves
Whirl down to say hello…
