The Many Roads of Life

The Many Roads of Life

Life has its up and down

Or it turns you around

You don’t know what’s beyond

Always running on an errand

This day you maybe climbing uphill

That is against your free will

The next day you’re going downward

You want to stop but it’s hard

You may be stuck in traffic

Yet you think you’re slick

Another day the road is smooth

You can stop by an inn, and have broth

The road maybe bumpy

And you maybe jumpy

This circuitous road is dusty

Hanging on a cliff makes you edgy

But always remember my friend

The road is never a fiend

It teaches lessons for us to bear

Doesn’t matter if you shed a tear

All those lessons are taught

For us to face life not for fraught

But to take the trial and be tested

And go beyond what’s expected...
