Life



Life is a journey that we all must take,
Full of twists and turns, choices we must make.
We start as a seed, then grow and mature,
Our experiences shape us, of that we can be sure.

We're born into this world without a say,
But what we do with our time is ours to play.
We're given a canvas, a brush and some paint,
And it's up to us to create a picture that's quaint.

Life is a precious gift that we must cherish,
For we never know when it will perish.
So live each day to the fullest extent,
And make every moment one that's well spent.

We'll face hardships and struggles along the way,
But it's important to remember to seize the day.
For every challenge is an opportunity to grow,
And we must use it to our advantage and glow.

Life is a journey that we must embrace,
And it's up to us to find our own pace.
So let's make the most of each moment we're given,
And create a life that's worth living.
