Only You Can Define What Life is To You
-no one can really define
-what life is to you
-but only you can tell
-yourself what you
-want to make of life;
-every game has two sides
-the winning side
-and the loosing side
-money is a fool of laughters
-and game of troubles
-but life often is more
-than this tempting pieces
-some are down today
-and some are up there
-but tomorrow, the tune of life
-often, changes gear
-the one you saw
-on the mountain of life
-is down below
-and the other, now up there
-the same dice
-many semblace faces
-but different counts of shares
