You never know what life has in store for you.

 Life gets In The Way

No matter what you plan

So often you have no say

This is the plight of man

 

As we travel along life's road

Thinking we have a destination

We all carry a different load

We all suffer from procastrination

 

We all hope for a better Life

Filled with love and peace

But there's always so much strife

And troubles never cease

 

It can be hard to continue on

To keep the proper frame of mind

With all the burdens put upon

All the answers so hard to find

 

The secret is found in the moment

Not in the destination down the road

Relief from your hearts torment

The lifting of your heavy load

 

Embrace each day with joy and love

Leave the past behind

Let in God's love from above

For you are one of a kind

 

From struggle comes accomplishment

From troubles comes overcoming

From effort comes achievement

From persistance comes becoming

 

Becoming the person you were meant to be

Overcoming all of life's adversity

Setting your eternal soul free

To travel where it's meant to be.

 

God Bless

 

Luke

A very levelheaded look at life and its ups and downs. From brief observation, I find that poets erupt like a volcano from the hard life. Those that have the easy road rarely write poetry.
