Life is.

Life is only a four lettered word,

Simple to spell, but difficult to know well.

Life is like arithmetic,

Where you can add new things,

Subtract old ones,

Multiply your joys and

Divide your sorrows.

Life is like history,

A record of events,

Try to correlate

Past with present

Life is like statistics,

A process of calculations and measurements

Calculate your successes and failures and

Find the average score,

Life is like economics,

A way of earning love and

Spending it among wisely

Life is like a teacher

Teaches us a lot

It is real, it is honest,

Like a rose bush

So rejoice it!

    Beautiful poem, and in the infamous words of Forrest Gump: My momma always said, “Life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get.”
