Image by Greencolander via FlickrJust about the time I get dogmatic,
Certain that I know it all,
You upend what I thought was fact.
Just about the time I drown in tears,
You enter in with unmitigated joy.
Just about the time I yawn in monotony
You come dancing in with a lively step.
Just about the time I think I know you,
You turn up, show another side of yours,
And there I am, surprised again.
