Toil

toil

Does the road wind up-hill all the way?
   Yes, to the very end.

—Christina Rossetti

life’s a road
that runs uphill
strife and toil
always will
be the daily
plight of all
who breathe

cursing fate’s
a waste of time
find your beat
and live your rhyme
cherish all
you can before
you leave

Richard W. Bray
