LIFE....from a 16-year old's eyes

Life is a gift from above, sweet

But it becomes sour as it goes

Crushing some and letting ‘em jus to
tweet

Beneath the horrible woes

Life is puzzling at times

This way and that way it goes

Taking us through the different stages
like mimes

Across happiness, and sorrows

Life takes turns smooth n sharp

U got to b alert n watchin

Coz it may b level or time warp

But neva be afraid coz ders no quittin

Life isn’t always fair

Doesn’t go the way you wish

You may find urself doing a job never dreamt
of

Ah! Never mind many say

and you may have struggles

Getting stressed and tensed

You keep worrying ceaseless

Problems seem to never end

Life is sick at times

Everything seems disappointing

Blows and misfortunes

Shoot you down mercilessly

People may ask what it is

For a 16- yr old as me

But it is just as confusing for His

Ways are unknown, no one can see

Life is a journey which ends six feet

Down in the earth but before it ends

You stop to watch the fair and fete

This comes in life like shooting stars

Life is a boomerang, one gets

Back what one gives

When you help others it comes

Back in two fold

In life you make plans, devise strategies

But it is the Lord who has the Last Word

He will bless your plans and policies

Only if u have humbly surrendered

There are some who come out

With flying colours through every

struggle fearlessly then they tout

“Trust in the Lord who gives victory!”

Life may even baffle you

So it isn’t all that bad u see

A ray of hope to you

it rewards unexpectedly

so that you may carry on!

Run this race with courage once more

for the God who brought you here wont

leave you to be sore

Life isn’t a lonely walk

All the people are on the same ship

It won’t hurt to laugh and talk

To cheer n encourage friendship

Life is like a coin with both sides

You always have a choice

Use wisely this power to beat d tides

And for the needy raise your voice

Smile often even when sad

To God’s hands, your problems give up

Return evil with good

Live with God at the top

Life is a gift from God, sweet

Let us live to fulfill our creation’s
purpose

Try to live like those birds that tweet

cheerfully, under their Creator’s care
