Lessons of Life

Character mellows down As time moves on It goes up and up it never loosens Sometimes, down and down it drowns Ascent is rare but it takes also descent When you have reached top it prints a dent In life, remember Humans drift once in a while And while the balance beam You can’t get condone Maybe reprieve, censure and triumph But, don’t ever miss a stone unturned Lessons of life is rather fine.
