Life is a struggle.

A J C 1958 (Swansea, MA)

Free verse

Life is one big struggle.

When your funds are low and your debts are high, you want to smile, but you have to sigh. When everything comes crashing down a bit, take a rest and never quit. This life is full of twists and turns, but with every turn you learn and some you fail. You might have won if you stuck it out. And did not give up. The pace may seem slow. But you may succeed with another blow. The goal you seek is closer than you think. Success is a failure turned inside out. You may have doubts, but you will find your way out if you yell and, shout and you will win the bout.
