POEM: THE SUN AND THE SCARS

Life taught me fast and slow,
Things I don't know things I know,
How to come back how to go,
Let the cock crow.

Life taught me hard like stone,
How to switch off and switch on,
Now you see how up I've grown,
Let the cock crow.

Life taught me day and night,
How to defend how to fight,
How to let go and hold tight,
Let the cock crow.

Life taught me how to shine,
Though my scars may not look fine,
But the future is all mine,
Let the cock crow.

Life taught me how to plan,
Since I knew that I'm the sun,
And the winner is but one,
Let the cock crow.

Life taught me how to try,
How to live and how to die,
And limit is not the sky,
Let the cock crow.

Life taught me how to fare,
How to care and how to scare,
How to go far don't mind where,
Let the cock crow.

Life taught me how to pick,
How to kick and how to trick,
And that life is no picnic,
Let the cock crow.
