Life is like a solid tree                                    

It always remains                                            

It will always be                                               

Through joys or pains                                    

It’s in the way                                                   

Sometimes I know                                         

But remember that                                        

Like you it grows                                             

Out from the ground                                     

It’s much like you                                            

And I’m sure you’ve found                         

Fun things to do                                              

It is true that

It’s much in the way

When we need it least

Needless to say               

But if it were lost

Not to return

We’d want it back

For it we’d yearn

It sure does have

Its ups and downs

When we glad

Smiles and frowns

Let it remain

And do its thing

Through all the pain

It will laughter bring
