Get It?

Accidental Poet



 

Your own life

Certainly, a troubled mess

But when you consider the world

 No guarantees you confess

 

For everyone has problems

From wealthy rich to lonely poor

Whether walking in or out

Life is a two-way door

 

You can complain of your job

Threaten to up and quit

Then without a paycheck

Your life, what will become of it?

 

An acquired gift

Learning to compromise

To accept the good and bad

See through the disguise

 

For there’s always something

Something to be learned

And that in itself

Is the prize you’ve earned

              If only you had posted this a long time ago, I wouldn’t have tripped so many times before ….

                It was the video that I watched the day I posted it that inspired the poem. I hope you enjoyed it. Thanks for stopping by Suresh. 😊
