Notes About The Poem

Life Purpose

Every single individual has an expectation. We are blinded by our greed and deception. We expect one leader to set the pace. Every single day, the hunt seems to advance. We find what is true in our quest block. It zaps us with an electric eel-like shock. It's not the one in charge of our social life. Between friends or family, we evade strife. Love and friendship are what we seek. Or a hill that we must soar to the peak. We grasp our vitality from the love we feel. Our freedom is driven in portion by this deal. If we're lucky, our youth will be sans fear. We'll dance in the green forests all year.

Expectations in life keep us going! While living we long for many things like love and friendship. We sometimes long to reach the peaks of success. Whether we get them or not, these expectations add zest to our living ! Beautifully composed, dear Lasaad !
