Both Sides Now

Both sides of life Depth of a loving heart, Immeasurably truer, Can make you rich or poor, Both sides of life! Shine of a peak sun, Intensely bright, Can make you shimmer or blind, Both sides of life ! Attitude is all that matters, Gala or sad, Good or bad, Positive or negative, Both sides given, Take you may whatever, It's your pride ! Cloudy haze of sky, Gloomy sight, Can make you dull, others revive, Both sides of life ! It's all about the road taken,, Walk merrily, with confidence, Or slowly in disguise, Choose one , Why ponder on both sides ? There will be times in life, When it's tough to decide, Both sides seem perfect, Have faith in God And enjoy the ride ! Written on 26/7/14 Contest - Both sides now Sponsor - Alfred Vassallo
