Poems about Life

Poems about Life



This is Life

I saw the glory of the sunrise,

Breathed the invigorating air,
And my soul rose to the very skies

When I sallied forth, proud to dare.

That was the morning.


The awful heat of the day came down;
I stooped, and my brow was wet with sweat.
And when I saw Misfortune frown
I cried,
"I am not conquered yet!"

That was the noonday.


The softer shades of twilight fell
And released my grip in the strife.
I am contented now to dwell
Where understanding sweetens life..

This is eventide.
