A New Perspective

We've all gone through rough patches. This sonnet is about realizing that this is a part of life, that we are not alone in our troubles and that by pushing onward, there is hope for better days.

Survive the world, our endless human trials;
The crosses brought each day, to each our ways
Uphold the challenge brought to us the while,
To strengthen that, our spirits for all days.
How bitter those may turn who can't see good.
An endless pit of strife they build themselves
And all that's good escapes their vision's hood
So there they lie, a cavern,  in they dwell.

But those who prosper, shall they see the light,
To know the joys of life, to live a life;
Accept the Fate and see the beauty of the night
And treasure each, our moments without strife.
We all have faults, we've each out battled wars,
And he who knows this all, sees life the more.

I see the two paths...the path of the bitter and the path of the those that see the light. We make our own outcomes. Thanks for your thoughts. ( : O )
