Serendipity!


MELLOW YELLOW MONDAY


SERENDIPITY!

Just a corner of a junk-shop.
And a picture on display.
The quirky laws of idle chance
Made them match this way.
Surely it was hung there
Without a second thought.
'Let's sling this one on this wall.
I hope it soon gets bought!'
And yet the colour of the wall
Matches to a tee
The background of the painting!
SERENDIPITY!


Luck can be good or bad here:

  3. I have always loved the sound of the word serendipity. It has a lilt to it and is almost as much fun to repeat as a rhyme from Dr.Seuss.

  4. Yellow-walled junk shop,
    will I find treasures in you
    hidden under dust?
