Titles

It is on those Rainy Days of my life
when I feel that there is so little light,
that my ups and downs, like kids' See-Saws, 
make me want to stop and give up the fight.

Enough of Me – my thoughts seem to say;
with spirits so low, no hope in my heart.
All the wishes I make are for peace and joy; 
yet hidden is my path of where to start.

Dionysus, Apollo Balance Me,
bring order to chaos, hold tight your reign!
Those ancient Greek gods from mythology,
say both are needed, the crazy, the sane.

Divine Intervention – I beseech your help! 
God give me the answers, please hear my prayers,
to balance my life despite ups and the downs,
and lighten my burden of worries and cares.
