This Is Life Poem by Tracey Newson

It's about Politics, sad conflicts
living in a world you just can't fix
Holding on or letting go
finding peace in your soul

It's about being low, getting high
In betweens and don't know why's
Finding faith or losing ground
How to live in the now

It's about cashing in or checking out
Knowing when to shut your mouth
Children playing, people praying
Saving earth from decaying

It's about being nice, being kind
Knowing when to say whats on your mind
Getting rich or going broke
Trying to breath when you want to choke

It's about Moonlit nights, sunny days
The sometimes gray along the way
Talking trash or speaking truth
Staying connected to your roots

It's about you and me, them and us
Knowing who to blame or who to trust
World Emancipation, communication
Atheism and New religions

It's about being free, knowing love
Having Faith in a God above
Staying warm or being cold
And having someone to grow old with....
