Have you ever planned any surprises? :) I have tried doing that recently twice. The thing about surprises is that when you plan them for someone and feel you are designing it, the surprise surprises you too. I like that feeling when you feel you are in control and the little scope where things can happen at their own will, actually change the whole course of things. It's like that one spontaneous step in the choreographed dance .
It's like you don't know what happens between the 2 words of a story. The words weave the story. So does the space between them.

As a kid
as I hid
behind the door
waiting to scare
waiting to surprise
I wouldn't wait to hear the steps
I peeped a minute later
or a minute before
laugh I would, aloud
Smile I do as I write this

An honest window flung opened for to steal glimpses of unattainable scenes of innocent childhood...
Fowler once commented how astonishment differed from surprise..that was completely on other counts, but fundamentally true to pristine presence of a tender soul when surprises do occur...It binds itself to looking beyond commonness, in creating new world out of its worn-out entity and, more deeply connected to exploration of truth in being. There it goes far beyond the world's greatest wonder--the most dramatic moment of astonishment.
The pleasure of hiding is more in seeking...it holds moments with pleasure of both yearning to get noticed and of stretching a pause longer than expectations...
Maybe, that's true for the life itself...surprises in life may have roots more akin to surmises in getting through it..
Regards,
