And the world understands me
Everything seems to make perfect sense
My life is where it seems it should be
But the world does not always make sense
Sometimes, I just have to hold on tight
The ride gets rough; nothing goes smoothly
Knocked off my feet; do I stay down or fight?
We are all going to face the moments
When nothing in our world makes sense
We are pushed down and dragged around
It becomes so hard to keep up the pretense
But our world will settle down again
The turbulence will end and our minds will clear
No longer wounded by doubt and confusion
We concentrate on living and not drowning in fear

very heartwarming!
Valleys are there so that we can better understand and enjoy the mountains. Thank you for sharing this poem.
This, too, shall pass, and we will be the stronger and the wiser for the experience. Thanks for the timely reminder.
Kinda reminds me of when I'm always telling my children "see you worried over nothing". Great poem.
Wonderful poem, Donna!
Sensible! Sorry I've been an absent responder.
Great job, Donna.
Patience is a virtue. Nice one.
