Cycles rage in ebb and flow
Rollercoaster life

Thank you Paghunda, so true...also true, warming and cooling cycles on earth have occurred for millennia, we are simply in a warming cycle currently, "climate crisis" yes! until it's not, and cold cycle begins! (Maunder Minimum) we are foolish to think man has the power to alter such lol! Politicians Know This & are lying to us!

James, Stunning Haiku. Your great metaphor improved your wonderful sentences. Only a few sunspots may generate ebb and tide, and these sunspots represent the life roller coaster. I've added it to my favorites.

For sure; often seeming caught in a whirlpool -- faith, both dark and light sides...knowing and knowing.
