Destiny

Life like the wavy waters
The human soul is destined to be the controller of the canoe under a storm
Man can't alone to sail through it
It takes a person to balance the power

A selfish self
Sinks in a storm

Good self will be blessed to sail through the storm
If that does not work
Life will still be worth it
Life will not be in vain

NOTE

This poem is submitted for The Writers’ Block Poetry Contest: Week #6

I'm so sorry for my bad grammar maybe. Because my native language is Indonesian language.

Line 3

Man can't _____ alone through it. There is a word missing. I think I know what you mean, but I'm not sure. maybe you mean "navigate"?

Line 6

sink should be sinks

Line 8

Got a blessing to_____ through the storm

there should be a word or two there. maybe "make it"?

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your correct. Hopefully one day, my grammar will be good. It' s hard for me.

look online for something called Grammarly. It is free. It will work as you type on steemit. It will point out your spelling and grammar and punctuation. It is an excellent way to learn.

Thanks for your advice. I appreciate it.

A poem full of meaning never give up in the face of conditions is sometimes not as expected there is suffering and there is grief, keep the spirit in achieving goals

Life does always put us in the unexpected. We must be strong and wise to deal with it.

Thanks for your coming here.
