The Good Loser
The skies are gray, but they are dry.
They may get wet when the day goes by.
Tonight a snowy mix predicted.
Will the roads then all get wicked?

Slippery as the roads might be,
We must deal realistically,
with the work that must be done.
Decisions made by everyone.

Some folks have to drive at night.
Delivering goods for our delight.
They keep the lights on for all of us.
To them our night we do entrust.

I’m glad I do not work at night.
But if I did, I’d find delight.
The moon shines with the whitest light.
When it is full, our night is bright.

There’s always something good in life
When even in the toughest strife.
Look for all the hows and whys.
Find the reasons that underlie.

Wisdom comes especially well
To those who lose and those who fell.
Learning how to stay on top
Successful ways we must adapt.

When you lose, you really see
The true course of reality.
It’s apparent to your eyes.
Think, please think, and then apprise.

Thank You, Father, life points to You.
Especially if we try to do
The best in life we can conceive.
In You, I truly do believe!
