All Things In Between
Rose Marie Streeter
Life between birth 'n death
journeys, winding path
uncertainties, frustration
believe this too shall pass
Lives will travel dark 'n light
can sometimes drag us down
must have faith within the heart
to somehow carry on
Somewhere between love 'n hate
our tears will surely fall
gather up the pieces
with head up, standing tall
Living with the ups 'n downs
can toss us in a spin
n'er give up, keep trying
start all o'er again
Life between rich 'n poor
steak or crust of bread?
do you look the other way?
take their hand instead?
Some days happy, others sad
emotions taking flight
get a grip, move onward
just walk within His light
Life between earth 'n sky
clouded shades of gray
look beyond for sunshine
make some time to play
Everyone has smiles 'n tears
hard lessons 'long the way
nothing lost is ever gained
new chances ev'ryday
Life between friends and foe
laughter, hurt, despair
cast away the turbulence
dance in weather fair
Seek out that hidden rainbow
'aft each pouring rain
keep shimmers of hope, a balance
to somehow ease life's pain
Toss aside the gloominess
step within the sheen
life brings both, good 'n bad
'n all things in between
Have hope for brighter 'morrows
let go of troubled past
live for today, the moment
hold them in your grasp
Life goes on, t'ween every breath
embrace each, one by one
remember of His promise
the best is yet to come
