This Life

This Life

A Chapter by Dhaye
"

mysterious

"


This life is a recondite transit
Where our paths might be unknown
We would stop  at varied crossroads
When confused at those strange zones

The sky each day may differ
There could be sun,  there could be rain
It could be blue or could be orange
But on the next pace,  it could be grey

And if ever the times get harsh
That we might stumble and fall
Just remember we're not alone
In going through tight bouts at all

Life is a creek of promises
Springing from heavens above
The rain of life will flow on us
We should welcome the gift of love

But like a battlefield we know
What we purport is to survive
In this platform of test and ventures
After each fall,  we must revive

Life is survival of the fittest
The world is a precarious place
Don't be that weak who cannot soar
Be like an eagle, conquer the space.

Thank you, kabayan.
Very Beautiful, confused by a plan to keep us in that zone
The sky it varies, but yet the Sun is constant
Not like Grand Mother moon always Changing
In the harshness we might stumble
But we return to Mothers Creek
Yet the battle it returns
See that we are not Weak, but Eagles flying in our Sky

Everything but Survival of the Fittest, a lie to keep us confused
We will rise from this Mess we are in, together, as Nature
all are helping each other in the struggle to stay Alive

Incredibly well done Dhaye, I love the Image, the Eagle, the Orange Sky!
Is it a painting you have done, or a computer art? It has it all in it, the mystery of Life.

Whenever i read poem, i would often associate it with other poems that i've read. This one makes me think of Desiderata. Truly, like an eagle, we are all given wings and it's up to us how to make use of it.

Thanks, Gab.
I just say AMEN! I feel uplighted because I face (as well as many others do) big obstacles right now and this felt uplifting in so many ways. I love it! Well written with imagery easily related to by the masses. We all need inspiration. You've made good use of the chosen words this week and I commend you. Thank you for your entry! Kudos

"Life is a creek of promises"...what a fantastic line that is, Dh! Certainly we must learn to navigate the potholes of life....we must keep going no matter what. An uplifting life lesson in this one. I liked it a lot. Lydi**

Strong and worthwhile my friend.
"Life is survival of the fittest
The world is a precarious place
Don't be that weak who cannot soar
Be like an eagle, conquer the space. "
Life should be our decision. Wild or calm road. Our choice. A fearless life is the best life. Thank you dear friend for sharing the excellent poetry.
