My Life

My life has taken me through many different turns;
    From which each i have slowly learned.

    When I was young, I thought I knew all there was to know;
    Then my life took yet another turnand I felt I lost control.

    As the years went by,  the turns got worse, but still I faced them with a smile;
    I think because the turns were not easily taken, then to live a straight mile.

    My turns in life were not all bad;
    Some were happy and others were sad.

    I slowly learned that life without it's twist and turns;
    Made me ask myself," were there any concerns?"

    Wondering if things I thought I knew;
    I am now finding out that's just not true.

    As time slowly passes, people and places change;
    It's kinda nice, not to have the same ole' view, alittle life rearranged.

    Minus a boyfriend here, a child there, a child here, then a husband there and another child 
would have never taken affect;
   The sudden changes in my life made me curious for what was coming next. 

   As the turns went on, each with a lesson to learn, my knowledge grew;
   I realized there was alot more to life, then what I thought I knew.
