Life

by | Mar 15, 2016 | Poetry | 28 comments

 

“What is life?” Ah! I wondered,

“An ocean of problems with pearls of happiness?”

Life is fun to some, but pain to others,

Life is fair to some, no gain to others.

 

Life is a struggle, Life is hope,

Life is to dream, Life is to cope.

Life is a roller coaster, Life is a game,

Life is courage to take the blame.

 

Life is failure, Life is success,

Life is luxury to live in excess.

Life is about goals, Life is an aim,

Life is a journey to all the fame.

 

Life is to sing, Life is to dance,

Life is to laugh when you get a chance.

Life is work, Life is money,

Life is spice in a bowl of honey.

 

Life is to read, Life is to write,

Life is to live with all your might.

Life is to learn, Life is to pray,

Life is to move, each new day.

 

Life is a race, to live with grace,

Life is to win, Life is to praise.

Life is a mystery, Life is to dare,

Life is to think, Life is to care.

 

 

Life is a blessing, Life is a gift,

Life is a bond to clear the mist.

Life is family, Life is friends,

Life is to love, to mend the bends!

 

Life has many phases, Life has many faces

To live with pride, with your held high,

Is what life teaches, is what God preaches!!!

    Speak it, baby girl. You know that’s right. You did very well on this poem. This needs to be put in an anthology.

    Hi, Vandana. I just out browsing blogs of Blogger’s World members. Haven’t seen you for a while, even though I am a follower. Have you had too many other “things in life” for writing lately? Hope you are well.

    Hi Oneta. Good to hear from you and apologies for not being quite regular for last few days. I was stuck up in the material things of the world and fulfilling my responsibilities of being a parent 🙂
    I plan to be regular from now. You will hear from me quite soon. Thanks for your concern. Really appreciate it:)
