The most serendipitous portion is the end where my daughter was talking to me and describing what happened in the middle of her concert experience a cpl days ago as I am writing and it just fell into place with this writing.

SERENDIPITY ON A SUNDAY MORNING

LISTENING TO NEIL YOUNG'S HARVEST MOON

Why must I please you?

When I write it is but an interpretation of a soul?

Where do you live that I have to visit you?

Though I admit it is an interesting place to go.

Sometimes it is peaceful,

other times not so much.

It is fascinating...

Like watching the ink flow off the nib of this pen

nonsensical...like this riverbank flow of lines

In like how did we get to this earthly nexus?

Where are we going?

What is the goal of these lines?

I don't know though I'm writing s l o w...

to allow the letters to gather

and overflow the banks of my mind.

I don't want to rhyme anything

Let's just walk

this road dark but not lonely

Rhyming means...

We have a plan,

and sometimes just being in a moment is...

Serendipity.

Like an eclipse happening in the middle of a concert

making even the band pause play to view the majesty of an untouchable minute!

True story of My Chemical Romance two days ago

Serendipity.

Like these lines from a conversation as I am writing...

An elegant circumstance of the moment.

The elegance of serendipity flowing along a stream of consciousness.

Stream of Consciousness
