MIRACLES ANONYMOUS

there may be times you notice
notches into niches, click
and fill the gap completely
just like silver that is quick

you tilt your head in wonder
thinking, "that was rather odd"
instead of just perceiving it
a random act of God

what you may call coincidence
is not a coin that's flipped
a miracle, anonymous
a little favor, slipped

yes, life may start careening
like a roller coaster ride
but sometimes there's a stretch
that simply seems a well oiled glide

you're thinking, "oh thank heaven"
as the peace into you sinks
but heaven's coming into play
a lot more than one thinks

what you may call a lucky break
was broken just for you
a miracle, anonymous
a bolt sent from the blue

you're climbing up a ladder
and you find a missing rung
but notice right beside you
there's a rope that has been hung

sometimes a window opens up
when doors are closing down
a bit of elevation
makes a smile grow from a frown

what you may call a leap of faith
is just a little jump
a miracle, anonymous
to get you past the hump
