All what one expects, gets served in contrast
Usurping the applecart, leaving utterly aghast

In just split of a second has the tables turned
Usually taken in stride, gets abruptly spurned

Own comforting environs get visibly torn apart
Pushing over the brink, to reinvent and restart

Hoping sun to shine, but pelts down with rain
Simplest of the chores, now one can't sustain

Just when surfacing, get pushed down below
No point resisting but go along with the flow

Life throws challenges, for us all  to contend
Few are tangible & others can't comprehend
