What are we in this life What are we in this life What are we in this life What are we in this life What are we in this life What are we in this life Each time I attend a burial, it only leaves me with one big  question, "what are we in this life?"  And I ask again, what are we in this life? At times, I meet people boasting on the road. "Do you know who I am?" This might just be a lawyer. if I may ask do you leave this world with those certificate? So my brother you are just sand and dust and to it you must go back, so everything you must have acquired on this earth remains invalid. A hymn in Anglican church reminds me of something, "we can only be remembered by what we have done" we can only be remembered by the legacy we leave behind and not what we are because we are just dust. All the prides of life has no where to take us, those mansion with will be acquired by others, not just others but who we don't know when we are gone. Oh man why so arro...

ODE TO LIFE Life, it still confuses me Why are we alive? Life was given to me Should that make me lucky We should be thankful to the gift of life But sometimes I feel life should be thankful to us Life lives off our fears and sadness Our Joys and happiness Our sorrows and Thanksgiving We feel that we feed from life But maybe life feeds from us Maybe we make life live Maybe we give life to life Just maybe, we are the reason life exists © Maracci

ODE TO LIFE Like the spring flowers blossom in, so shall our lives begin. We are born innocent of violence and suffering, and from all the screams that the world is thundering. But from these ignorant, feeble minds, will come the future of mankind. And as our youth marches on, the season of summer comes along.

But even though the stars are for our taking, very few will cease from breaking. As we become young men and women, we must leave behind the toys we loved as children. For, even though we may now bask in the sun, new trials have yet to come. As we move to our middle-age, the autumn’s leaves begin to change. Plans to live carefree and wild have been replaced by your hungry child. Drinking, partying, and sleeping all day are changed into working for your corporate pay.

ODE TO LIFE Life is a mystery Some say it's a misery Slithering off like a sly snake when sought Coming to bite one on the nose when ignored Its terrors, inducing shudders, imposed on mortals Its pleasantness, served on a platter of gold A bubbling sweetness, impossible to resist Life, like a clear spring trickling over a bed of black rocks Capitulating at the gentle tug of its chosen Reining back in disgust, indifferent to the undertow of the desperate Life, like a firewater pool Its beauty and sweetness out of proportion A grim lover A pleasant reaper Life, the most sought The least earned © Augusta Augustus
