Poem: Life Lessons

Life lessons
What have I really learned We must practice Empathy
Appreciation
And compassion
That’s what life taught me But I knew that already

Life lessons
I will never forget
This time in life
The faces
Painful expressions
Uncertain times
In need of a miracle
As the world battered me
Left me bruised and numb Stunned into silence
The Grave is where freedom reigns
