Easy Life? Poem by Elizabeth Padillo Olesen
Easy Life?
Is there such an easy life?
Each moment calls one to decide:
To rise up or to sleep
To work or to report sick
To care for someone or neglect
To hide or to face with courage
To speak up or avoid noise
To calculate or to risk
To march on or give up.
Each moment calls for a decision
Is there such an easy life
when each day is posed
with choices to make?
Sure, I think there is no easy life.Every moment, we must face vicissitude.Nicely pen.I enjoy this.
Thanks for your response, Veeraiyah. This is a very simple verse but I think it is something that we all can identify with.
a thought provoking poem on choices of life and our inability to decide, due to constraints. Nice to read!
