What Is Our Life

A ballon filled with air of opportunities 
Blown by the wind of uncertainties 
Grab it with care. 

A two faced coin of passion 
Tossed by hand of situations 
Accept bopth sides with patience and smile. 

A play sealed with suspence 
Eeaturing joys and sorrows 
Watch it with passion. 

A game filled with tricks and mists  
With coded rules and sealed instructions 
Play it with wisdom.
 
A race filled with pains and pleasure 
On a track so wide and narrow 
Run it with focus.
