Speed Bumps on the Road of Life
By Larry Linville
Car is driving so nice
No snow and no ice
It’s almost like child’s play
Then a bump’s in the way
Speed bumps slow drivers down
They are all over our town
Safety is their real goal
That is their only role
Speed bumps enter our life
We sometimes call them strife
Interrupting our day
Giving us much delay
Life’s speed bumps do us good
Though we don’t think they should
Forcing us to give thought
To the things life has brought
Taking time to see God
In places that seem odd
Taking another route
To learn what life’s about
