Life- The Gift Itself

A little poem

Your life is a gift that has been gifted,

Only for you to be lifted.

It’s wrapped in this long ribbon,

The length being the expanse of your life.

The contents within,

Where the events of your life begin.

What a pulchritudinous thing,

That this gift does bring.

Wrapped in opulence,

Bound in gold.

The opportunities,

The beauties.

Sometimes, they’ll be a struggle,

At times, we’ll have to juggle.

But it is all part of the package,

Bound in wonder.

These struggles aid us to grow,

To learn and to tame life’s flow.

Ergo, have gratitude,

And a sanguine attitude.

For this life is a gift, within a gift,

Bound in splendour.

It is precious and transient,

And it belongs to you.

So love life- your life.
