Roller-coastering through Life

What goes up must surely come down
What goes around eventually comes around
That’s nature’s rule for all and one
Even for God’s most powerful and omnipresent creation, The Sun

The Sun rises everyday
Flooding the planet with happiness and sunshine
Like a catalyst to life on earth
It’s symbolic of all things bright and fine
The Sun, our greatest source of warmth and light

But there comes a time when even the mighty Sun must go down
Veiling the planet with a cloak of darkness
Yet that’s no time for fear or frown
Because balance and harmony are nature’s secret
So what goes up must surely come down

And when the sun is down, just wait and watch
A silvery moon will come around
The twinkling stars will wink awhile
And a quarter moon might even seem like a smile

You wouldn’t even know when darkness slipped by
And someone quietly chased away the night
If your faith is strong, you’ll surely look high
And seek the rays of hope at dawn

Sure enough the sun will rise and shine
And drench every being with its light
Soon the sunbeams will dance on your window pane
And everything will seem just all right

You’ll find the dark clouds gone before long
And then your whole being will yearn
To burst into happy song!
