During Troubled Times


During troubled times in life
And they do turn up as they do-
We always have several choices
Things that within we know so true-
When times get harder sometimes slowly
We have roads during same that we can take-
That will lead us from negative to positive
Many choices we have that we can make-
We can always strive to pass life's tests
Of life and love and living as they come-
Not blaming others for our own mistakes
But instead do our best to get things won-
If ever we need help from our real friends
The very real ones that in life we know-
Most of all over time that we have been there
For them in situations of life it is so-
Never blaming others for our own problems
Unless they are the very ones to blame-
Trying to be warm and ongoing positive
And never adding negativity to the flame-
Communication it covers so much ground
In moving us away further from the storm-
We might even feel to learn as to walk again
But we have done that after being born-
Not giving up but digging deep within
To find a better positive way to go-
Remembering always that it's sunshine
That only turns up to melt away the snow-
Striving to be the soul we are within
And knowing bads they never make a right
There's a better day awaiting tomorrow
Even if it does not turn up over night-
Your very best friends they will listen
But we need as well to listen too-
And when we are weighted down with trouble
Love ..  can only make us feel brand new-
