Roller-Coaster Ride
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You never change
I’m glad about that
Don’t get me wrong
but sometimes I envy that about You
Sometimes this roller coaster ride
really gets to me…
I long for the straight stretch at the end
where it slows down
so I can see what’s up ahead
I’m not a thrill seeker
and surprises can get wearisome
Help me to ride out
the peaks and the depths
of uncertainty and adversity
Cause You never change
and after all –
You know what’s up ahead
even if I’m trembling
on the turnarounds
and beleaguered
by corkscrews
and double loops
You’ve got this theme park
called life
all under control –
Thank You!
I couldn’t bear it
if I thought this ride
didn’t end well.

Do you worry about the future? Or do you try to take life one day at a time? I vacillate between the two. I know what the right answer is – but it’s hard sometimes, when you are only human.
