Life The Greatest Gift

Among the whispering stones

And the whistling sands

A never-ending sea of barren lands

Interspersed with shining heaps of bones


A solitary hawk's cry

In the glowing embers of the sky

The occasional hiss and rattle

In the burning sands below

A somber world you might say..


Some might feel it a curse

To be existing in this living hell

Isn't this land the mediate hearse

A secure ride to the netherworld's well


In this hellish place you may ask 

Who in their right minds would bask

Is it a life worth living you may feel

You may make a spiel


But have you forgotten

To actually have a thought so misbegotten


The truth that was and is, That this was to begin with


A place where living be the greatest joy that can be construed

For as long there be life, there'd be hope

So, pack up your meaningless rants of gloom and solitude

Just tuck your belt and set out to cope
