Life Poem by Gertrude the Weirdo

Life
Has a funny way of teaching you
Its lessons aren't always easy to understand
Sometimes you don't get until it's too late

Life
Never goes easy on you
It never knows when you've had enough
It just keeps giving you challenges
Whether you're ready for them or not

Life
Doesn't last long enough
Just when you think you've got it figured out
And everything's going right
It ends

Life
Something so many people take for granted
Is a special gift
It's something to cherish and make the best of

Life
Even though it's not always easy
It's something to enjoy
