Ode to Life
Life is special and important,
to everybody in many ways.
Why?
Some say “You only live once.”
If there is such a thing as reincarnation,
there is no memory to prove it.
For the past is unknown.
Life is like a cup of water
Or the Fates’ thin threads.
When it is cut or spilled,
it is never the same.
This world is full of special things,
like family, friend, pets and all things worth living for.
Not all people were born rich.
Some people were born to hardship.
But what they need
Is not in wealth of silver spoons and good-lined pockets-
It is the wealth of silver love and happiness, in family and friendship.
To some people,
Darkness will come first.
Happiness and brightness will come next in life.
Dig a way out of the darkness,
And the sun is waiting to shine.
