Life (Sonnet) Poem by Paul Hansford
Life (Sonnet)
Living your life the way you want to go
is not that easy. Things don't turn out right,
never go just the way you wish they might.
Plan as you will, you never really know.
Some people seem to have that lucky streak,
enjoying what they really don't deserve.
Or is it luck? Perhaps they have more nerve,
enabling them to achieve what we still seek.
Don't you just wish sometimes you had the key
that let you do what you would like to do,
and find some luck intended just for you?
really to be where you would like to be?
Don't waste your time writing some master plan.
Spit in fate's eye, and grab life while you can.
can someone help me, i need a rhyme scheme from this poem
The sonnet is a great format for such wise words, loved it 10+ regards Tom
WOW... NICE POEM VERY WELL SAID, ... THATS THE IRONY OF LIFE..., SOME ARE MUCH MORE LUCKIER, BUT IT DOESNT MEAN THEIR ALSO THE HAPPIEST HUMAN ON EARTH, ITS JUST ALWAYS ACCEPTING WHAT WE HAVE AND WHAT WE DONT HAVE AND What we can't have... because life is not a matter of luck but it is a matter of faith...
I like the thoughts you put here, and the ending couplet is esp. fine,
life is full of mystery and misery...............the other side of it is wonderful. you could have all the wonders in life.but, the pinaccle of it is your satisfaction..when you're really satisfied.nice write.
