"SteemitPoetryContest #2" - LIFE AND THE SILENCE OF THE GRAVE
On and on, we toil through life
The game of survival starts at the cradle
We learn, we grow, and time flies by
Our journey; sweet or sour becomes a fable
From babies, to teens, to adults; we thrive
Aiming for the best, we push for the heights
Life hurdles await us, but yet we survive
By journeying through life's turbulent flight
In the end, we reflect and hope for a peaceful rest
With success; we consider ourselves as brave
With failure; we reckon we gave it our best
Finally, we succumb to the silence of the grave

STOPBeautifully articulated. Poem is always economical with word but full of meanings. I love the ending. After all these toil we succumb to the silence of the grave. Very pathetic
Yea....Deep line you've got here
Thanks for reading @ebohio2008
