PHOTO FRIDAY: MOTION
GO ROUND AND ROUND
The Ferris Wheel Of Life
We’re going to ride the Ferris Wheel of Life
And when it gets to the top,
We’ll review each of the blessings we’ve received.
They never seem to stop!
Round and round we go
never stopping, never wondering
our life’s struggle has it’s beginning
it will always have it’s ending
Along our way we’ve found laughter,
love and happiness, freely given by
Earth Angels we call ‘Friends.’ -
From them we find courage to ride
Life’s Ferris Wheel time and again.
We have our ups and downs
And fears for the future in our early rise
Our aching knees we take in stride
We have a God that heals and provides
For this we trust in faith and give thanks
As long as there’s beauty in the sunrise,
The sound of laughter at a sweet surprise
A child reaching for our hands to hold
The ride on Life’s Ferris Wheel, we’ll savor
Just knowing the blessings of God’s favor,
Our hearts will be happy and we’ll never grow old!

Ahh thank you. It was taken a couple years ago at the fall festival on the last day in the amusement park before it closed for the winter.

Great ferris wheel. I love shooting them with long exposure like you’ve done here.

Thank you, I learned how to take this kind of shot in a class I took last year.

Love this, “As long as there’s beauty in the sunrise,
The sound of laughter at a sweet surprise
A child reaching for our hands to hold
The ride on Life’s Ferris Wheel, we’ll savor
Just knowing the blessings of God’s favor,
Our hearts will be happy and we’ll never grow old!” Everyday somehow I feel that I do ride the ferris wheel of life except that it doesn’t cause me to be dizzy. Great post.
