Life - Finding Your Way Poem by Paul Warren

There once was infinite possibilities
Looking ahead there would be days to please
There were no dead ends or regret looking back
I remember what I thought I would not lack

As Kings and Queens we ruled the world
We couldn't lose in any competition held
But now we know the sunshine is not always there
And that you can loose when you do care

Some timelines are short and others carry on
And we who are left just want to get along
So here we are after these years
Knowing sometimes things do end in tears

Life has its ups and down and the measure of it
Is how you recover and make it all fit
It seems to be a funnelling down each day
Where what matters is finding your way.
