'Life's Roundabout' Poem by David Bennett

'LIFE'S ROUNDABOUT'

You know life is just a roundabout,
Carousel if you like,
Going round in circles not often worth the hike,
Waving as you go past!
No wave back in return,
Missing lots of stops now, nothing in return,
Lots of times you enjoy it!
Sometimes makes you sick!
Stick in there when its fast now,
Enjoy it when its slow!
Sometime in the future, when you think you missed your stop!
It will go round once again,
Then you can enjoy life's lot.
People will start waving, come and stop with me,
Then your face will lighten with oh so, so much glee!
Remember life is a roundabout, someone will wave to you!
If you jump off at the wrong stop!
Be sure to jump right back on!
Then you will be so happy,
Your sorrows will be on the run!
