The Battles of Life

Amidst these gripping times in which we try To live unscathed by human fears that bind, There is in us the hope we can't deny A sort of light, a beacon in our mind. While life has trials there so intertwined, We bravely sail through rough seas day by day We're in this ring to fight, fight still today, And though marred by pain we still stand our ground Until the day when in our graves we lay Battles fought... and our final peace we've found. Cynthia Buhain-Baello~~~01.27.18 Dizain poetry One 10-line stanza 10 syllables per line Employs the following rhyme scheme: ababbccdcd

You do the syllable metered forms very well, life has many battles, but most of them make us stronger... or we learn important lessons...
