A blessing in disguise

One day sitting under a tree.

A leaf fell on my knee.

It was showing signs of stress.

Just the way l felt,

I was hurt and my heart had an ache.

I took a look at the ground that l sat,

l realised a whole lot of leaves that were worse.

Most had dried and died.

But they had not given up their purpose even in their state of death.

They provided warmth in winter

and coolth in summer,

Protecting its own.

As some decomposed the soil was fertilised.

Giving the much-needed nutrients to the

surviving leaves.

That's when something hit my mind.

Even with my broken heart.

Staying positive was the game to play.

All l had to do was get up, shake off the dust, and change lives.

AFTER ALL, MY MISFORTUNE WAS A BLESSING IN DISGUISE.
