Your Life. (Septet)

by Steven Beesley   Aug 10, 2008


Take a look
closely at your life,
are you happy with it's course?
Learn and try to make the best of it,
even though you can't change it.
Be true to your self
and be free.

    This is the first time I have seen a Septet...there are so many poetry forms....I don't think I will ever learn them all.
    Great job!
