Status Quo

there are no sinecure's in life
accomplishment to effort due.
we all contend with daily strife
each day, resolve we must renew...

something is lost by easy gain
the satisfaction is far less.
our health gains stature after pain
at near disaster, God will bless....

appreciation comes too late
we take for granted many boons.
our love will sometimes turn to hate
forever lasts but a few moons.

for man is never satisfied
he wants to change his status quo.
uneasy that he's been denied
but what he wants, he doesn't know...
