Life
Life is like an enormous mountain, see
It's a trek and often a struggle, so;
Be careful because you might lose footing;
Slip, all for nothing and danger for thee.
Life is like a bagel, so delicious, warm
But often hard and makes you scorn;
And wonder why the hole is there for sure ;
Tis not a bagel without the mystery.
Life is like a pencil, the timeless tool;
It can be sharpened and correct mistake;
Big and small, remember it's okay to fall;
And when you get back up you leave a mark.
Life is like an oul tin can;
It rolls, it rattles and goes 'cling clang';
Its skin is soft and fragile but it's brittle and cuts;
Through the heart of an artist, in a world that's gone nuts.
