LIFE
Life an age old topic
All the whys and wherefores
But no one to answer!
Prophets say to gain experience
Scientists say to evolve
Preachers say to serve God
But, who are they?
What do they know?
Yet despite all
We feel the unknown
Lurking like a Tiger
Ready to spring as we stumble
Still, we say its life
This is living
All the pain and suffering
But, who invented it?
Why must we suffer?
It's unfair to me, to you!
The rage and rebelliousness rises
We must fight back!

""One person who has mastered life is better than a thousand persons who have mastered the contents of books, but no one can get anything out of life without God." [MEISTER ECKHART] I wrote this poem when I was 17 and never showed it to anyone until now. I am at the present 43. Life to me now, are lessons we learn each and every day throughout all of our lives."
