The Rollercoaster Of Life

Up one hill

Down another

Face flat in the dirt

Stand up and run again

 

Up another hill

Halfway down the other

Bump into someone else

Pick them up

Go around

On the run again

 

Halfway up a bigger hill

Stop and smell the roses

Fall asleep

Wake up drained

Crawl to your feet

And run again

 

Round a corner

Hit a wall

Cry for hours

Dry the tears

Share your love

On the run again

 

Downward fast another hill

See someone hurt at the bottom

Rush to help them

Help them smile

Start and run again

 

Up another hill

Round another corner

Always on the run

Until He takes our breath away

To take us to that peaceful place

Where we long to be

 

No more hills

                No more tears

No more pain

Peace at last

Resting in his arms

Forever

Where There Is A Will…

 To each of you

Who said, “you can’t”

To each who said, “you won’t”

To the one who said, “It cannot be done”

To all who said, “there’s no way”

I thank you

For

I can

            I have

And                 I WILL

There is not much greater than a sincere challenge for one who has a will and finds a way to use it; with extreme determination.
