What Comes in Many Forms

Perfection comes in many forms.
A daisy with just enough petals for them to love you.
Just enough cereal left in the box for one more bowl.
Happy baking accidents that leave the end result better than expected.
Holding hands.
Having just enough time to finish homework before turning it in.
Getting your handwriting just right.
Your pants staying white all through dinner.
Catching a falling object like a ninja.

Disaster comes in many forms.
Spilling the last of the milk before any of it gets in the bowl.
Messing up on your homework four times in pen.
Waking up late and not being able to shower.
Staring at a voting ballot without any good candidates.
Tripping over nothing and spilling your papers on the ground.
Forgetting your work schedule.
Drunk drivers.
Loving the wrong people.
