What Is Life

What is Life
	
Life is a gift, with many ups and downs,
Its mysteries and wonders keeps’ us spellbound; 
It takes us on adventures, that were not planned,
It has twists and turns, that we’ll never understand;

Life never stops, no matter the time or season,
Its existence is evolutionary, like the “Garden of Eden.”
It is a story book, pages full of complexities,
It baffles our minds, and exposes our insecurities

What is life? It’s beauty, change, imagination, too,
An everlasting rollercoaster ride, experienced by me and you!

Good evening SKAT A, I appreciate the love and your kind words. I am a novice when it comes to poetry but as an avid communicator, I have always had the ability to express my thoughts and ideas creatively through writing. I recently discovered this forum and thought that it would be a good place to showcase my works. I look forward to communication with you and others within the group.
