Life
Jayshree Birmi 1952 (Gujarat)
Life is like how you see to it.
Beautiful if you see with that sight
Raw and rough if you deal with it cruely
Soft and smooth if you treat with kindness
A garden of roses if you want it to be so
Otherwise it's a path full of thorns
Listen to the soft sweet sound whisper of it
Life is what you want it to be
A loving and caring for all makes it easy to live
Never say no to a lovly life just welcome it as it comes
There is always a happiness in the shadow of sadness
