I like the last two lines of your poem. We don't really know what's coming but it's important that we are prepared for whatever it is. We should be ready to face it and embrace what's before us, good or bad. Because with the bad, we can appreciate the good. Sometimes we are just too complacent and we take things for granted, so when something bad hits us, we panic and are terrified. It's good to be prepared at all times.
