SYNOPSIS LIFE"S JOURNEY

 

                                 SYNOPSIS LIFE’S JOURNEY

 

Eyelids moist, tear drops on olive skin evolve

life's journey complex, challenge one's resolve,

emotional, tense, stressed, sad, daily pain

forge forward invigorating pride, thus gain.

 

Lightning flash, eerie black tunnel now bright

drastic dream derails steam train out of sight,

happiness blossoms, fresh phase in bloom,

dormant warm character bursts forth from gloom.

 

All be upstanding, glasses charged, raise as one,

“Toast good health, long life, love, to everyone.”

 

Swiftly exhilarated surge ahead, newborn mode

on elated odyssey, a surreal smooth silk road.
