We are all put to tests in this life. Give it hell!!!


Poem Artwork

What is it we all seek to find
Is it something within our mind
If it doesn't appear
Is it real?

Those pipe dreams we hope to attain
Sometimes all go right down the drain
Perhaps maybe they should
Too surreal

Face life with what life hands to you
There's nothing else that you can do
For that's what's up you see
Just like me

Life's not a bowl of cherries no
There's nowhere left for you to go
To hide from life's demise
Let it be

Face it headon screw all the rest
Live is the final acid test
To find out if you're strong
Or too weak

My father machinest he was
Told me of acid tests because
Comparing it to life
Strength we seek

Fall down get up continue on
You are so very very stong
I have all faith in you
You're not weak

We all walk a path :)
And then "Face life with what life hands to you"
Then we come to a point of understanding why and
why not... when you reach this point, you glean
more understanding and wisdom :)

Love and Light

A deep resounding piece of work, Jane. Much good advice from your father, and advice you seem to have taken to heart.
