Life

A life poemLife can seem ungrateful and not always kind

Life can pull at your heartstrings and play


with your mind



...Life can be blissful and happy and free


Life can put beauty in the things that you 

see
Life can place challenges right at your feet


Life can make good of the hardships we

meet

Life can overwhelm you and make your

head spin


Life can reward those determined to win


Life can be hurtful and not always fair


Life can surround you with people who care
 

Life clearly does offer its Up and its Downs


Life's days can bring you both smiles and

frowns




Life teaches us to take the good with the

bad



Life is a mixture of happy and sad


So



Take the Life that you have and give it your

best

Think positive, be happy let God do the rest


Take the challenges that life has laid at your
feet


Take pride and be thankful for each one you
meet

To yourself give forgiveness if you stumble

and fall



Take each day that is dealt you and give it

your all

Take the love that you're given and return it

with care


Have faith that when needed it will always

be there


Take time to find the beauty in the things

that you see


Take life's simple pleasures let them set

your heart free



The idea here is simple to even the score


As you are met and faced with Life's Tug of

War
