" LIFE'S BEAUTY " MY PHOTO, ©

May be an image of rose and nature

My destiny, fiercely, I confronted the other day, Complaining about the many obstacles She has placed on my path, Plus For all the calamities and pains That she has so, mercilessly, inflicted Upon me. She heard my protests with disdain, But with them, she didn't agree, then Angrily she retorted, That the blame should not be put on her, but Rather upon me, Since ONCE she had heard me to Exclaim: "How beautiful life, in reality, CAN BE!" © Demetrios Trifiatis 15 October 2022

Sometimes when we are struggling on lifes path we often lash out looking for someone to blame for our woes but we often forget all the good things we have experienced in our lives. Tom
