The Poem of Life
the rhythm of days
defining seasons display
a promising rhyme
within the meter of time
the prose of perception
conceiving the
the meaning of conception
the art of existing
for the story sublime
embarking for sojourn
bless-ed of trial
with journeys
to fulfill
as seasons refine
returns do adjourn
causing
the weight to abate
as twists n turns
become straight
along wisdom of miles
alas days will grow dim
yet this night glows bright
for it's now held within
this celestial light
tis why we're destined to recite
beyond mortal strife
the poetry of living
in the poem of life
