Would we truly feel love without the pain of loss
Would we know a real bargain if there was no cost
Would we know the joy of having if we never did without
Could we appreciate assurance if there had been no doubt.
Would we know the craziness if we only embraced the sane
Would we enjoy the sun if there was no rain
Could there be a heaven if there was no hell
If we were never sick could we appreciate being well.
Would there be good without the bad
Would there be happiness without the sad
Would a smile mean anything if there was not a frown
Could we appreciate ‘difference’ if 'same' was all around.
Would we take for granted togetherness if we'd never been alone
Would spring bring such relief if winter we'd never known
Could we truly appreciate the future, if we'd never lived the past
Would we take the time to ponder the first if there was not a last..........
