Life Is

Life is full of complexity A road map of experiences A roller coaster of emotions A classroom full of learning Life is each gifted breath Precious time in this creation To share love and to give To allow our soul to create Life is granted with choices Opportunities surround us So much to see, so much to do Always a chance to better ourselves To fulfill a purpose here and now To be grateful we are here at all 6/30/22 Entry for Life Is…Poetry Contest.
