Curve Ball
Life will always throw you a curve ball
I've seen this all my life.
But you must be able to hit that ball
Or you'll end up in turmoil and strife.
Life is not a steady smooth ride
For anyone that I know,
Everyone gets a curve ball thrown in
For that's what makes us grow.
We can strike out and grumble at that pitch
And stay in that awful place
Or know that's just the way of life
And put a smile upon our face.
Curve balls are thrown at all of us
And one will be thrown at you too,
So be prepared when this curve ball comes
And don't let it destroy you.
