This Is Life Poem by Heba Abdel Azim

This Is Life

Rating: 4.5


Life is not ornated with flowers
Life is not only full of towers
As there is the rich, there is the poor
As there is the healthy man, there is the patient who needs cure.
Life is not only full of joy
There is also sadness and sorrow
As there is the tender girl, there is the courageous boy
As there are people who lend there are those who borrow
As there is weakness, there is courage
Also there is the true love that ends with marriage
Life is not only a tear
It can be a kind of cheer
Or it can be fear
The tear which is a valuable one
The cheer which is like having fun
And the fear which is like being killed by a gun
Life is not only as you like
You can walk, run or ride a bike
Life is full of contradictions
It has a lot of reflections
As there is the big house, there is the hut
Do you like your life or what?
You should adapt yourself to your own life
Life is a struggle and it is a big strife
As there is the honest man there is the thief
As there is bean there is also beef
You can not choose your own life
But you can improve it and make it better
The man can choose his wife
The wife may brig her children up or leave them to a babysitter
Try to live your life in a free mood
If it is in a valley or in a wood
As life is not ornated with flowers
And there are people with great powers
