LIFE IS A SONG

Life is a song that's sang for long,
or, for too short, like beat of gong. 
Moments to sing are just like gold;
One miss, regret, till you are old. 

Life is a beat, rhythm and blues
and a lyric with cloudy clues.  
Before you sing, you understand, 
so, you can make your rightful stand. 

For in a song, feelings matter;
Fill your heart with words you utter.
What makes the songs so beautiful
is when they touch the hearts of fools. 

So better sing your song so well;
Speak each word with the rightful spell. 
Your time to shine may just come once, 
and gone for life like failed romance.
