Go With the Flow



Some people are like restless seas
That have a hurricane.
They never seem to be at ease
And storm about in vain.

Some people are like lakes so small
When winter throws a fit;
And those within the angry squall
Wish wind and rain would quit.

But, some people are like a stream
That slowly goes its way
With charm that makes you so serene
And wish it would each day!
