Life...as it comes

(Here is a light take on life; hope u like it.)

Life is like a house of cards,
Unstable like the wheels of a rickety cart.
It's a never-ending race of God's creatures

Interspersed in between by His Interpretors.

Life starts with a crying baby;
Later on, it may be a matured lady.
Finally, a grandma of ages
Who has filled her autobiography with millions of pages.

Life gives us so many gifts
Without ever asking for a return gift.
Hills, mountains, rivers and lakes,
"Oh! Why do poets forget chocolate cakes?"

A wife to love, a dog to feed,
A boss whose orders you have to heed,
A friend who could be the friend indeed,
To all these, we surely owe a good deed.

Accept life as it comes,
Erase the differences and renew the sums.
Why shatter the windows and break the doors,
Just because Sachin hit only four fours?

"Time is precious and also valuable."
Who cares - do I really need a time-table?
I believe life is in no hurry.
If not a cup of tea, at least it may be curry.

Whether life is boring or interesting
Depends on how good is our pampering.
If you live it to the full, you will see
The innumerable times you have been set free.

Another fine composition. And couldn't endorse your view more and that is the reason I believe in baring my teeth all the time.
