Life is full of surprises.
Some are good, and some are bad.
Cherish the good times,
and learn from the sad.
When the weather gets rough,
and the storm picks up.
You are always welcome to use my shoulder.
It will always be here, when you need comfort.
Cheerup ____, thank god you are safe.
Life is full of surprises, its only a bad day.

I would make the rhyme scheme similar throughout.

Life is full of surprises.
Some are good, and some are bad.
Enjoy when a good time arises.
And learn when a good time turns sad.

When the weather gets rough,
And the storm picks up,
You are welcome to use my shoulder.
It will always be here,
So be of good cheer!
Most important, thank God you are safe!

Life is full of surprises, its only bad
when you twist the current fad
into something most drab!
JUST BREATHE!
Life almost feels fake
if for a moment we take
even a little time for a break!

If you would have room
for this stanzical tune
by thecoolnessrune!
For this all would be nought!
If it weren't for ATOT! :D

Thats how I would write it anyways ^_^

And even then chloroform is likely necessary.
Corrected for accuracy.

For poetry writing inspiration consider Kurt Vonnegut's following classic:

"The plums are ripe
And ready for plucking,
You're just out of high school
And ready for college."

Personally, I cant stand imagery poetry without any rhyme scheme or meter. That selection doesn't even have eye-rhyme.

Personally, I can't stand people who can't take a joke. The fact is though that poetry doesn't have to rhyme or be in some metered form such as iambic pentameter, etc.
