i have to make this clear first this poem is written by my brother not me but i like it so much that i decided to post it and he's vocab is obviously so much better than mine it's written quite some time ago it belongs to my bro! =D
it's called : Life
Seven phrases of life carved out in clay, Filled with joy and sometimes dismay. Seven phrases of forgotten pain, Of which to clear the heart's tormenting rain.
You cry and you wail, you have left her womb, Exposed you lie in a frigid room. Your mother smiles with loving eyes, With you in her arms her spirits rise.
Through her guidence how old you'll grow, Many of life's test you'll pass and you'll go. Wisdom in old ones will give you aid, Of which you will soon repay in great.
Rejoice at last you set out alone, From your family's nest you have finally flown. Although you are strong in body and mind, Your tearful parents are left alone and behind.
Through the many setbacks you have endured, The heart's illments will soon be cured. With experience you have made your name, With precision you have met your aim.
Your hair is now long, your body has grown, Your parents are gone you are all on your own. Though joy is not yours but it is still to others, For you may now aid your friends and your brothers.
Now you are gone through death and decay, None of which they believed you've craved. Left behind they mourn and they pray, After you've assured them that they'll be okay.
Life was hard but you passed its test, Now your old bones may finally rest. Your kin does mourn, their tears do pour, You will be missed forever more.
The choice is yours but you are warned, The selfish person will soon be gone. The hearts of others will clear your path, Heed only yours and you'll face great wrath.
