When you’re down and when you’re out,
You feel like dying and want to shout.
You want to run but you’re sick in bed;
From green to yellow, now lights are red.

Rest for a while, sport a false smile;
Taste of life, sometimes seems like bile.
But tarry a while and things will turn;
Once more your life, will seem like fun.

Happiness, sadness, dark and light;
Laughter, tears, friendship, fight,
Everything follows an eternal cycle,
Life’s experiences test your mettle.

Get through it with flying colours;
Happiness can’t be bought with dollars.
When things seem tough wait a while;
Then win the world, with a genuine smile.
