[hometext] => This poem is a lesson I am continually learning. /The first part is song lyrics/ The second and third parts are poem fragments of the same name.
[bodytext] => When the rain falls everyday and the clouds block out the sun and you come home to relax to find all your stuff is gone when the bills keep piling up No relief is seen in sight can you muster up a smile even in the worst of plights There is a road that everyone will have to walk where your enjoyment is knowing well yourself And happiness is being content where you are with in the storm Can you be happy? When your kids keep messing up and you know you taught them well. When your friends abandon you at the time you go through hell. And the flood waters rise up to the level of your neck neck. Can you wade the rough torrent will you drown alone in it? There is a road where everyone will have to walk Where your best friend will be yourself And night time dwells like living life in a tunnel with in the storm. Can you be happy? Is the flower's bloom enough with the green of each grass blade? Does the singing of the bird take your troubles far away? When you hear the rolling brook; does it bring to you a smile? Nature plays it's symphony; do you drown with in the bile? There will be troubles everyone will have to face Will you lose hope and fill your life up with disgrace This is the lesson everyone will have to learn To find relief in life or burn! Can you be happy? (As we grow older our dreams crumble and die We pass our desperate feelings to our dear friends lives We burden them with pleas of help us find relief and miss them in their time of need) Can you be happy? Times of bad bring great unrest darkened times with in our midst often the solution's near we just do not want to hear The road to us seems very tough It's easier to just give up and yet life hold a different plan For him or her who tries to stand. Edited 4/30/05 The second part is in parenthesies the third part is after that.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
