    Life's Ups and Downs

    Now life, it surely has its ups and downs. We never know when they will come around. We cannot know what tomorrow will bring, So, in every trial, we must sing. We have no control over floods and storms, Over things that happen not in our norms. We can’t anticipate everything. We have to...

    I say, "Goodnight"

    I say, “Goodnight,” I say, “Goodbye,” I say, “Hello,” now don’t you cry, For life is short in many ways, We do not know how many days. For time is ticking, ticking by, We do not know when we will die, It could be soon, it could be late, For we know not the final date. For we are born and then...

But many are those filled with heartaches galore, While so many others their pain they ignore...
