LIFE.
Life is like the ocean Broad and deep: Billows of emotion O'er it sweep; We must battle boldly With the tide, Lest it waft us coldly Far and wide.
Life is bright or dreary Where we dwell; Though our feet are weary, All is well, Ever bravely pressing On our way; Fairer is the blessing Day by day.
Lite is like a jewel In the rough; Cut it, be not cruel Just enough. Polish, till its glory Full, divine, Tells a noble story; Even thine.
