Life

I hit a car--
Perfectly it was parked.
It wasn't far;
I just didn't see it.

I got out and knocked
To tell the owner my fault.
He didn't seem so rocked
By having his headlight hit.

Instead of nitty gritty
Insurance, quotes, and such,
He was alright with three twenties,
And I went on my way.

I didn't have cash
So in ten minutes
To the ATM I made a dash,
And remained responsible and unknown.

Serving in the moral moment
I realized how blessed I am.
Though not a time from heaven sent,
I realized how blessed I am.

I have loans and bills,
But I pay them.
Life has it hills,
But I go over.

I have a place to live,
Certain creature comforts,
And when I am trouble given,
I can get through.
