What Is Life

Life is a mixture of troubles
of hardship and of fun 
life was donated to all
some still here some have gone.
I often sit and wonder 
what life for the future will be
will i have it forever
or tomorrow i may not see.
Life is something to be respected
in any thing that we may do
for today you may be happy
then tomorrow bids good bye to you.
Life is like a ship that passes along
today you are here tomorrow you are gone.
so to think of life it is the hardest plan
for it is something no one will understand.
