Life

A Poem by Jerryyoung1z

Life is a race
that nobody wins
You might think it's
Stable
But life always spins


Life is a game
Every body wanna
Play
Don't think you're in
Charge
You can't have your way


Life is a place
A whole lot of space
room for every one
safe your face


Life is a tree
A whole lot of branches
It's a pool of risk
Take your chances


Just like an illusion
Life is a dream
Life is a mystery
Flows like an endless stream


Life could be magical
Sometimes
It could be cruel
Life could be anything

But nothing without YOU!!

A superb write, Jerry.

This reads very swiftly, like a drink going down the throat on a very hot day! It is very difficult to achieve such pace and rhythm in a poem, and you have done that extremely well here.
Life is all that you have described here. It is quite the conundrum; so full of many hidden meanings, open truths, and twists like an emotional tornado.
This is a very good poem. Rhymes are excellent. Nicely Done!

Short, simple, beautiful. I like the optimism (realism, really) of this poem.

Yay! Thanks
This poem is hitting on all cylinders & that's rare. I love the message, I love the rhyme, I love the rhythm, & I love that it's approachable & friendly & welcoming. Most of all, I think your rhythm is superb. It could be a rap song. When I write poetry, I find rhythm to be the most challenging. People critique me on my rhythm all the time. That's why I especially love the easy beat of this jig. Thanks for sharing.
