life’s ups and downs
Life is a mere turning wheel. Only over when it stops
life’s ups and downs
Every up side has its down,
After a smile, there comes a frown.
The sun must set for night to rise,
Tears will cleanse the clouded skies.
Peaks and valleys, the ebb and flow,
A dance of joy, a touch of woe.
The bitter makes the sweet more clear,
Each shadow proves the light is near.
So when the frown begins to stay,
Remember, it will fade away.
For life’s a wheel, it turns around—
What’s lost is often later found.

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.
