Life Is Funny

Life is kind of a funny thing.
When I really sit and think.
~ ~ ~
I go through my day on the run.
Don't really pause to look for fun.
~ ~ ~
I need to be here, I need to be there.
Gosh I am needed everywhere.
~ ~ ~
My work day ends, my home life begins.
Sighs of relief, when there are arms I can walk in.
~ ~ ~
Arms of a Spouse, Arms of a Friend.
And an ear that they don't mind to lend.
~ ~ ~
The pent up feelings of the day are released.
I go to bed at night, feeling so much peace.
~ ~ ~
With Thanks to my Family and my Friends,
Each day starts not needing to make amends.
~ ~ ~
Now... would I change things, If I had the chance?
I say Yes... But then on second glance.
~ ~ ~
I think things are as they were meant to be.
And there are so many who count on me.
