It Is True Enough That Life Is A Journey Poem by Francis Duggan

It is true enough that life it is a journey
A journey one day that does have an end
It is the same for the monarch and the pauper
And the billionaire why otherwise pretend

For some the journey in life laden with honors
But their kind are in the minority
For many it is a tough uphill struggle
And many is a growing majority

Yes for so many life's journey is a struggle
A rough old road to travel one might say
Of homelessness, sadness and disappointment
On a journey that does not have an easy day

It is true enough that life it is a journey
An easy journey only for the lucky few
To this you may say you know all about it
You only tell us something we already knew.
