WHAT IS LIFE

The old man sucking 
Idly at his cane looked up
Life, he said, is the four seasons
If you see them, then
You have seen life
There are more components
He added and went on
Beauty, service to others
Thinking of others first
Harboring no hatred
Following the rules
Belief in your creator and
Being His follower
This is life
Do not leave
Anyone in confusion 
Be willing to forgive
Remain full of hope
Always ready to serve
This is life
It may not be easy
But the journey is worth it
There will be a time
When you can do no more
Lord have mercy
May my life have 
Lived up to all expectations
If not I ask for forgiveness
Eternity is forever
The old man went
Back to his cane
Muttering:  Yes,
This is life
