Sometimes Karma

Something that came to me last summer.

Sometimes karma forgets its place

Doesn't bother to show its face

Fails to deliver needed grace

Then it falls on all of us

Just accept or raise a fuss

Me, I tend to lean the way

Of getting even some fine day

Despite what anyone has to say

Because it falls on strong and weak

To turn it back, or turn your cheek

Sometimes karma forgets to show

And then it falls on us, you know

To get revenge or let it go

Good one Jim! I love the format...the 3 line, two lines and the same end rhyme in each verse) Is it one of your own? ~Sharon

Thanks, Sharon. This just kind of "happened" as I was working out the bugs in this one and I liked how it looked. ~Jim
