Human Malady

Human Malady

Everything has it's time 
When an event is ripe
Nothing can elude it
As the chiming of a clock
Designates a specific time of day
So events in our lives 
Yesterday is history 
Today is here, alive with us
Tomorrow is pregnant,  unknown 
No matter our escapade,  life goes on
We have a task, not to be bogged down
By events,  negative or positive 
It is a malady all mortals must live through.
And, if we are strong enough
Bearing in mind, as we know 
The weather has many different seasons 
Every season has it's timing
Then, we can be sure
To go through life's maladies prepared.
