Life Goes On

A Poem by Alicia Hirshey

Sometimes you make A's, Occasionally B's,
The future holds the answer,
Just wait and see.
Life goes on.

Accomplishments, recognition,
You feel special and alive!
but, now the moments ended,
You must continue to strive.
Life goes on.

Friends are special,
Some come and go,
Some stay forever,
But the lasting takes time to show.
Life goes on.

for every life that leaves this world,
amidst tears with their dying,
Somewhere else a child is born,
Joyously, kicking and crying.
Life goes on.

Elder loved ones leave us:
We hold their memories close to our heart,
Throughout our lives their lessons and love
will always be a part.
Life goes on.

As loved ones die, New babies come,
We love them just the same.
It's with pride we welcome them,
To carry on our names.
Life goes on.

What today may seem a tragedy,
Tomorrow might be brighter.
Let's consider it on an other day,
When are moods are brighter.
