Too Easy

For some, life is so easy
they rarely ever fall
The doors open before they knock
they seem to have it all

And then there are the others
who struggle with their life
Each step they take is wrought with pain
heartache's carving knife

A word of comfort I will share
with those who have it rough
People served with a golden spoon
never have enough

They rarely enjoy what they have
and take so much for granted
They eat the fruits of other's work
the trees they never planted

Much greater joy can be had
by those who climbed the hill  
They know the feeling of victory
the triumph and the thrill

If life is much too easy
and everything goes your way
If darkness never covers your world
you won't enjoy the day

And so it goes with loving too
The times of painful bliss
prepares you to appreciate
a smooth relationship

Be glad the road was bumpy
and that you understand
How sweet it is to work and see
the fruitage of your hand
