Race of Life

By Kiara Sanei

In the tapestry of life, we weave our dreams

Through transient moments and quiet streams.

From daylight’s start to evening’s hue,

We move ahead with bravery and strength.

When young we run after the sun with joy in our hearts not knowing the risks

involved in our quests.

However darkness prevails even when there is no light, and difficulties are

inherent in growing up.

By unknown ways and hard ordeals

We find ourselves, drive out our frights.

Yet it is adversity that continues the fundamental nature of true living as

opposed to an easy life style

But peace storms’ trials shall test us.

Through laughter shared and tears shed,

Friendships made, love widespread.

Every beat counts for every breath we take;

Our spirits awaken within each option they make.

This life is more than just a road which has been paved,

It’s an Ode laden path with ups and downs

Hug its high and lows,

Savour its melodic sweetness transient blows.

Let us cherish every moment of this journey as we pass through sorrowful

events as well as joyous ones too

For all comes down to what legacy remains when everything else has been said.
