Learning From Life Poem by Chris Embrick

Learning From Life



This life's not what I had in mind
I've learned to leave some plans behind
On dead-end roads I've wasted time
Spurned good advice
Failed on mountains too hard to climb
I paid the price

Sometimes lucky, I'm in control
Sometimes circumstance steers my soul
On some days I feel less than bold
Life's ebb and flow
Those times when dreams are hard to hold
I let them go.


Note: Some days ignoring your own advice is the best advice.Stop and listen to others.Wisdom is a stream with many tributaries.

'Wisdom is a stream with many tributaries.' I love this particular image- and the very wise advice your words offer. As always a splendid read and one that speaks directly to the reader. Great job Chris! Lodigiana x
