A Good Life

A good life is a life filled with friends
a life without bends
a life with God in it
a life with enough to eat

a life without hate 
a life with an open gate 
for good things and with good fate
a life where love is not late

a good life gives you a glimpse of heaven
it gives you joy and fulfilment
it changes your losses to profits
removing anger and resentments

a good life starts by learning
learning to persevere ,to strive and to be endearing
learning to love and respect both the young and the elderly
in others words, a good life starts with "  family"

hold tight to your family, make sure you do
hold tight to the first key to a good life
hold tight to God ,the creator of a good life
and you shall experience how good life can be too

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
