What is life?

What is life?
Test of strife?
Mix of joy and sorrow,
Today then tomorrow?
Or test of faith,
With world as bait?
Happiness and calamity,
Death and eternity?
Nothing you behold
Niether sand or gold,
are there with you for good,
So do what you should!
Go and do a deed,
Help someone in need!
Don chase the world in greed,
Before the bird is freed!
Go save ya self with deed!
Help the ones in need!
