The wheels of life keep turning, <br />Propelling us along, <br />And as they go, we're learning, <br />To, be both soft and strong. <br /> <br />To take laughter, fun and pleasure, <br />To take grief, sadness and tears, <br />And when we've had full measure, <br />Along come other fears. <br /> <br />This world can be so splendid, <br />But also hard and cruel, <br />And as one hurt is mended, <br />Along comes a renewal. <br /> <br />So take each day, and value it, <br />Once gone it can't return, <br />Just treasure every single bit, <br />And give each your concern. <br /> <br />© Ernestine Northover<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-wheels-of-life/
