My Beautiful Life

Here is another poem for you to ponder As I sit here and let my mind wander Are you all you think you can be? Or are you a drain on society? Look in the mirror and stare at your soul You are the one that has to carry the toll It’s your life make the best of it We only get one try, so be legit Try to do your best each day Before your life passes you away Take the time to do it right And you will sleep well tonight When you feel your life is in turmoil No need to let your blood boil Look in the mirror once again Tell yourself to make amends Life is a wonderful and beautiful thing Living to your potential, spreading your wings Show the entire world who you are Let the people know that you are a star I end this poem with a final note I love my life; I’m not trying to gloat I look in my mirror and it’s easy to see God has provided everything to me Duane A.
