My whimsical look at life.

If not for thorns there'd be no rose


If not for dreamers there'd be no prose 


If not for rain there'd be no rainbows arc


If not for noise there'd be no meadow lark


If not for dirty diapers there'd be no tots


If not for dirt we'd need no flower pots


If not for bees there'd be no honey


If not for jobs there'd be no money


If not for age we'd have no youth


If not for manners we'd have no couth


If there's good then there is bad


If there's  happy then there is sad


The world is spinning round and round


So keep one foot balanced on the ground.

very good, and there is a lot of truth there also. Most things in life have opposites and that is what makes the world go round. With the one foot planted on the ground we have an anchor to keep us from spinning into space. Very imaginative. Karen
