If you could try to see
Life in terms of abstract
Oh the fun you’ll attract
As the reward
Your smile may be suspect
Others may stop and stare
Some may glower and glare
Blow them a kiss
For unless they allow
There’s a chance of more fun
When logic’s on the run
Why is why not

A summer lightning bolt
Announcing the thunder
Quick, take cover under
Nearby shelter
And as the rain does fall
In puddles all around
Happy the grateful ground
To have a drink

Know this, my dear sister
I want nothing from you
I wish the best for you
Only ever
The only change I seek
Where your life is concerned
Your horseshoes be upturned
Overflowing

Thank you for the detours
Altering chosen route
Belief it will work out
Makes it all right
For when twists become turns
It can shake us up, ture
And wonder what to do
Take a deep breath
You can fight it or let
Your adventurous side
Say hey, enjoy the ride
I’ve got your back

Sometimes, it takes some time
To see results you crave
Still, you must be brave
And stay the course
You’ve gone and made a plan
Each step along the way
Just take it day by day
Without worry
Persistence is your friend
You’ll shed those happy tears
When solid proof appears
Effort paid off
