Hard Times
Hard times last longer so
it seems
When the miseries of life
torment the soul
There appears no hope in
your despair
No happiness that will
console
And yet, even life's
misery has its place
It enhances the simple joy
of life
Things we once took for
granted
Are manifest when rising
from the strife
How much more we
appreciate love
When we have been forsaken
Health after illness,
strength when it returns
All the good things there
to be taken
Misery and woe are easy to
attain
But happiness needs some
work
No bird sings if we turn a
deaf ear
No light shines if in
darkness we lurk
Seek love and you will
prosper
Have the strength to
survive
Care about yourself, and
be cared for
Be thankful that you are
at least, alive.
