Obsticles and Trials lyrics

I sit and pander today

Is there reason

In the rhyme

Each day I and others like me

And I...them

Struggle to equate

The tides of better and worse

Overcoming obsticles

While others lie in wait

Vast hopes with loss

Many become real

It is those we struggle to keep

Their value is evident

Animate and inanimate

They are the rewards

Of our many trials
