Grand Surprise

 

If you look on dismal days

A rainbow you may see

And in a dirty lump of coal

A diamond there may be

 

An oyster holds a pearl

Inside its shell so tight

And the sky displays its diamonds

If you look up late at night

 

Mother Earth’s greatest gifts

Are there for you to share

And come when you’re not looking

Or believe they won’t be there

 

For fate hides the answers

In the most unlikely places

And you may find your closest friend

Behind the most unexpected faces

 

So when the sky

Looks dark and grey

And it’s just another

Rainy day

 

Don’t despair

And close your eyes

For this could be

Your Grand Surprise.
