The Surging Waves Of Life Poem by Qiniso Mogale

Like the ocean or sea,
Life has it's own waves,
Life has its ups and downs,
Life has it's own tides,
These waves run directly against the
course of life,
These waves have destroyed many a life.

The waves and tides flood the ship of life,
The waves and tides make the ship
of life to go off course,
The waves destroy the bridges of life,
Yes, the waves shipwreck relationships,
The surging waves of life have resulted
in many committing suicides.

The surging waves of life
have crushed vibrant economies,
The surging waves of life
have brought down the high and mighty,
The surging waves of life
have brought to nought once powerful empires,
The surging waves of life
have left billionaires penniless.

The surging waves of life
have humbled the proud and arrogant,
The surging waves of life
have taught many that circumstances can change at any time,
The surging waves of life have taught the once
powerful that time is more powerful than them.
