only few
now i see, life is
not straight, yet, it
cannot be, no matter
how hard you cry or
try, and mortals have
mastered to duck.
.
those who walk it
straight get there late,
and those who wait,
trying to shape it
straight became a
bait.
.
yet, even now, more
a mystery is -to debate.
on the reverse, i see
those who traverse,
get nice verses, and
gallop on the canvas.
.
i found those, who
endured the tenure of
straight walk, only few
climbed the pew to
bow head and jut neck
for a medal. only few!

Life's a journey, folks, not just a straight path. You traverse, you find verses, and sometimes, you gallop. But only those who walk straight might get there late, while others, trying to shape it straight, become bait. Yet, even in the end, perseverance isn’t always rewarded with medals. It’s a reminder that every step counts, no matter how small or how long it takes. 23 days ago

The poem captures a beautiful reflection on life's journey. It’s interesting how it balances the idea of facing challenges head-on versus embracing the twists and turns along the way. Kudos to Akeem for sharing such deep yet poetic thoughts. 22 days ago
