Roller Coaster

I board the massive roller coaster, knowing I will be thrilled Aware that my quest for excitement will be fulfilled Climbing the first hill the anticipation does build A plunge so deep, terror sets in, leaves me chilled. Hoping all bolts on the ride are tightly drilled Imaging that if one came loose, I could be killed Don't take stupid chances, advice parents have instilled Beating my fear of heights, my mission I have filled.

Somewhat like life, ups and downs, taking chances and the thrill of overcoming fears and yes a bit of danger. Thanks for the ride. I also wanted to say hi.
