Riddle #10

Most places you go you’ll find this all around,
There’s rarely a place where this isn’t found.
This you can’t surf, yet you can feel through the ground;
It can have overwhelming force, but does not weigh a pound.

It’s quite integral for us to maintain,
If it ever stopped, it’d become hard to explain.
A device for great beauty, yet also for pain
Grand like an explosion or sweet as falling rain.

It drives some into madness, but pulls some from the brink,
It’s found quite annoying when we need to think.
Yet without it around, into loneliness you shall sink;
So what is this connection? What is this grand link?

Well that's this week's riddle, I do hope you enjoy;
You can also rhyme too, for that's this week's ploy.
I'll be rhyming in entries, some on IMs too
It'll drive you insane before this week's all through.
(They rhymes won't all be perfect, most won't even be nice;
But at least I'm trying and rolling those dice!)
So just for now, follow the plan I've laid out
Laugh, post, participate, stand up and shout!
Just don't remain concealed in the shadows so dark,
Because if you do, this thing becomes stark.
If you don't want to try, I do understand,
I'll go it alone, with just myself to command!
I've given you options, take them if you will,
(The services are free, there's really no bill).
So until next time when I rhyme some more
Join in yourself, don't let this be a bore!
