What is Life To You Poem

Virginia — Sat, 10 Mar 2007 13:07:36 GMT

To the preacher, life's a sermon, To the joker life's a jest, To the miser life is money, To the loafer life's a rest, To the soldier life's a battle, To the teacher life's a school. Life's a great thing to the thinker, But a folly to the fool. Life is just one long vacation To the man who loves his work, But it's constant dodging duty To the everlasting shirk. Life is what we try to make it, Life is a story ever new. Like the faithful, earnest worker What, my friend, is life to you?
