LIFE By Joseph M. T Musa (MTJ)

Written by Editor

Life is a fine work of art,
Something you paint or write with your heart,
You won’t be able to determine the end, if you don’t start,
A symphony of colors of words,
That write lifetime stories on your walls.

You use what you own,
To keep improving and reap what you’ve sown,
Appreciate the hand you use,
Because you don’t get to choose,
And then if you’re too picky you’ll lose.

Learn your lessons from other life art designs,
And be careful of what you create using your fine paint,
Never emulate that your ability comes from your greatness,
They’re gift from God, and they’re not utterly painless,
Stop being judgmental or too selfless.

The design can be one of its kind,
I write and create actions undefined,
Controlling every word that cometh from my mind,
By the knowledge of others who are undermined,
Using every principle and sign.

Use the love God has given,
So that all your fine arts and designs will be proven,
And the guidance of his hands,
To make it in his promise land,
Your life must be a good example not an empty stance.
