AS YOU LIKE (Poem)

Image
 As you like my dear,as you like, It's the inner current gives hike, Use your foot to break the strike, have the strength enough, don't like? But if you like idleness, It's a barrier to conscience, Like anything you choose, Don't forget to paddle Push. Life is a journey of learning, It's like a reverie, instant burning, Dreaming the future fruit earning, Life is ' as you wish gardening '! Bees will come and go, But the run will never be slow, As you wish to live like snow, Melting and frozenning again to grow! Wish good morning and luck, To yourself and others,give huge hug, Take the Honey of life and start to suck, Throw away dull dreams and biting bug.
