When Life is No Picnic

When life’s roads of twists & turns, seem to slow you down;

When you hit unexpected bumps & potholes,

that try to shake you to the core;

When rains & stormy weather, rain on your parade;

When life tries to stop you in your tracks;

When life is no picnic;

You can count on me.
