Life

by ketaki   Aug 4, 2016


Like a lump of mud
I was idle,
A heart of burning desire,
Made me stick to a pottery wheel,
Now with the age i have grown,
Life has put to a survival test of fire,
Struggling and making way,
Becoming strong from top to bottom,
Acquiring new skills and attitude to win,
Made me a perfect man that parents desired.

    Life can make you or break you - one must remember there is always hope, always another day for life to challenge you again.

    An inspirational little piece of poetry.
    Life can indeed shape us and make us stronger, as long as we learn the lessons it throws at us. Hopefully, we become better people because of them. Others never learn...
