The Meaning Of Life

Some say life makes no greater sense
Except the mere survival
The others take life as a chance
To defeat their worst rivals
Camus saw life's absurdity  
Epicurus taught pleasures 
Gods claim life is a moral duty
To get the paid off measure
What’s life for us, my darling love?
I’d say to me it’s clear
That none I mentioned here above
Can cover what we hear
In singing of the morning birds 
And what we chat of over tea
Cannot relate to the absurd
And neither to the duty..
