When times are good and happiness thrives a year slips by in merely a day

When times turn dark and oppression takes hold a year drags on for untold days

When People decide between right and wrong – years of rebellion will grow wide and grow strong

    Reminds me of the line from “Hamlet,” — “There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so” — Well done, Gypsie.
