Facets of life...

In a tideland, life feels like the roaring wave,
which crawls through its own ups and downs.
Wandering in the mirror, life turns into a journal,
encrypted with random smiles and frowns.

In an amusement park, life looks like a roller coaster;
it has its thrills, twists and turns.
In a hospital, life sounds like an ill patient,
looking for the cure of the maladies and burns.

In a stadium, life takes the form of a sport,
and it just depends on the game and how we play.
When insanity overwhelms, it drags into the fouls:
deceive, cheat, betray or even slay.

Any random day, life can feel like a blessing,
ill-fortuned next day might be, it turns into a curse.
When melancholy wraps up, life moves like a snail
but on a brighter day, it can run like a horse.

Life has its love but also injects its hatred.
Life can be given; life can be taken.
Life has its gentler touch but also has harder punch.
Few tranquil days and other days are shaken.

Life brings you on your knees in times of need,
disappoints you with gravel when you look for a gem.
Life brings you a lot of things, but in the end,
its all about what we do with them.
