Life is the sun in the morning with ray shining down
The moon at night with an eerie glow on the ground
A spring time rain with flowers bursting through
An early morn with a lawn wet with overnight dew
The smell in the kitchen when baking bread done
The laughter of a small tot when he's on the run
The aroma of morning coffee freshly brewed
The chaos of a house with children running through
Life is a wife's loving kiss after hours of work
Your dog chasing his tail in a circular quirk
The family car washed and polished on a sunny day
Your cats chasing a rubber mouse having their way
Life is the family together at holiday time
An evening sunset with light and colors sublime
A picnic in the park napping under a tall shade tree
A country to live in called the land of the free
Life is many things and many woes
And all together, that the way It goes

It is expending energies against the ordinary and the might

by Ramsha Syed
As delicate as the breezing wind,
As strong as the storming gale,
As confident and radiant as the shinning sun,
As mysterious
