Try again

Here’s a poem I read.

Try again
Life is a long, bumpy road
We each carry our troubles,like a heavy load
there are many hard turns and some dead ends
But whenever we’re stuck we must try again

No one’s got an easy ride
but failure can be pushed aside
When we give up hope nothing good can happen
So when all seems lost you must try again

You can’t have a meal if you don’t sit at a table
you won’t learn the moral if you don’t read the fable,you can’t
take control if you’re plagued by inaction
and you won’t overcome loss if you don’t try again

When the coins’ in the air,if you don’t pick heads or tails
having not made a choice you’re bound to fail
But if you choose and choose wrong
you can always still win because on the next flip you can still try again

Those who succeed seem to have it made,
basking in the sunshine or basking in the shade,
But they’ve been down too and it was then they picked themselves up and tried again

So when your spirit is weak and you need to cry,
and you want to be happy but you have to sigh
when things seem bleakest ,that’s the time when you must
shrug it off and try,try again.
