A Peep into the School of Life

in poetry •  8 years ago 

Life is a book of stages

And has no respect for ages

With offering of beverages

Wrapped in diverse challenges

Which are embedded in every page

Not for any to be in cage

But for all to know its adage

To enjoy her attendant advantage

Yet many are in bondage

Because of lack of knowledge

These, they think to be a disadvantage

And are not willing for a change

Spending their adult years in mirage

Defending what has been a siege

‘ Learning Is For Everyone’ is the adage of life

To have this knowledge keeps hope alive

This what gives the drive

And not to waste a dime in strife

Thanks for reading :)
