We seldom see
danger’s face,
concealing in
his hiding place,
secreting himself
behind a veil,
waiting his chance
to cause a fall ~
take care, take care,
we’re ALMOST there…
and when he strikes
we’re so surprised,
it’s so unexpected
it’s hard to accept it.

there is danger in breathing and walking around…in most everything…and we are surprised when it catches up to us…

I think the surprise is because it is almost impossible to be vigilant all the time.

Living life ‘on guard’ is not really enjoying life, but we have to be sensible and not ‘tempt fate’.

Oh yes, Bb, and often it is more shock than surprise!
