When Things Go Wrong

An Inspirational and Uplifting Poem EVERY DAY from Simon J. Halliday!

When Things Go Wrong

When things go wrong, as they can do

Don't fight too hard to find the clue

It might be something else to blame

But start your search within, with you

The world spins on, not much has changed

Of course life's gifts are rearranged

Yet basic truths will never die

And likewise, neither you nor I

So have some faith that all is well

Although we know that time will tell

Some shocks, surprises perhaps in store

Despite disguises, life gives more

Go onwards, upwards, never stop

It's never too busy at the top

For billions searching down below

Are looking upwards at the show

It's quite a scene, there's much to see

It's not quite everyone's cup of tea

But some will wonder if there's more

And what their life might have in store

These souls will rise, they'll not know why
Yet something draws them to the sky
And way beyond, where stars are born
A peaceful haven from life's scorn

There isn't a chance, with faith and hope

Your mission could fail - you know you'll cope

Whatever life throws, however things fall

When things go wrong, stay standing tall
