hard times

is the rain falling from the sky
keeping you from singing?
is that tear rolling from your eye
'cos the wind is stinging?

don't you fret know child, don't you worry.
the rain's to help you grow, so don't try to hurry
the storm along
the hard times make you strong.

don't you know a crop could never grow,
if there were no showers?
though the rain might bring a little pain,
just look at all the flowers.

i know how long a day can seem,
when storm clouds hide it's face.
but if a storm disolves your dream,
just remember his amazing grace!

don't you know the sun is always there,
even when the rain falls?
don't you know the son will always care,
if he hears your voice call?

die kunst muss immer ein wenig angst machen und ein wenig zum lachen bringen.
jean dubuffet

kunst ist schön, macht aber viel arbeit.
karl valentin

Schön ist eigentlich alles, was man mit Liebe betrachtet.
christian morgenstern

to the virgins, to make much of time

gather ye rosebuds while ye may,
old time is still a flying:
and this same flower that smiles today
tomorrow will be dying.
