Life Goes On

[Guest foxglove4543]

Friendship, love; they come and go

When they'll cease, we'll never know

Families could well separate

Ending in much grief and hate

 

Yet life goes on; accept this fact

For no one ever made a pact

To stick through thick and thin with you

Nothing from Life's overdue

 

But live life to the fullest, friend

Despair not when you hit THE END

For life goes on; you'll somehow live

And you'll regain the will to give...

Yes! Oh, Foxglove, I have such admiration for you right now. You have just made the perfect poem - I think, anyhow. Not only did you stick to a traditional rhyme scheme, but you also tackled one of my favorite - and at the same time, most despised - topics. I often say that life is plodding along and dragging me along behind it. I like how you address some of the most important aspects of life in the first stanza: family, friends and love. The outright statement that no one has said they would stay with you untill the end is very bold, and true; I respect and admire that. But, the way you encourage, after such discouragment, in the final stanza is also really good; a calm after the storm, if you will, as you slam down the facts of life in a very out right manner. Your rhythem is consistent and flows very well. Yes, I like this poem very much. Bravo!

Thanks, Lord Seth Exodus! Glad that I managed to get this one out not too bad ... lol...

I think I agree 100% with Exodus.. To go from such harsh reality, to a place where all becomes well.. Brilliant if I can say so..

 

You stuck with that rythym, and carried it throughout the poem.. One thing I myself have a problem with..

 

Congrats on an excellent poem. Keep up the great work.

For the end is never seen, always heard and rarely understood.
