Life Is a Highway

Life is like a winding road

Each blind curve reveals a new mode

Beautiful scenery reminds me of life’s beauties

Callous, rash traffic reminds me of the uncertainties

Its better we maintain a certain speed

If we want our life to succeed

Too slow, we will fail in the endeavour

Too fast, we will lose the treasure

With  its halts, the journey goes on

With an eye on the destination, it lingers on

A never ending journey it seems

To reach the destiny of our dreams

With all the hassles ,the road gives us

All that stress and all that fuss

Remember,destiny is waiting for us with open arms

Wanting us to rejoice, in all its charms
