Life is short

by rock serenade   Apr 16, 2012


That baby is sleeping like an angel in his cradle
His parents are watching him and wondering
Who he's gonna be ?????
Will he be happy ,will he be sad
Will he be good ,will he be bad
Will he be able to face this wicked world
Well the innocence never lasts
And the childhood days are going so fast
Then his first love then his first child
Then after some years he'll become gray-haired
And maybe after one day he'll pass away
Well!! we'll all laugh and we'll all cry
We'll all live and we'll all dye
But through this all and inbetween
Nobody knows how it will be
One thing is sure ......
The time flies , the life's short

    Upon reading the title "life is short", I agree with you, and after reading the whole piece, I definitely agree with you lol.. Yes, time flies. But my suggestion, not being rude, but it would definitely improve your poetry, try avoiding cliches. Time flies is a very common line, try changing it a bit, use a different metaphor..
    Other that that, I like the sort of story-telling here. The imagery and how you penned this words that are read in a matter of seconds, in my mind a little boy is now grey-haired. Really well done. 5/5 Keep writing :)
