Expect the Unexpected

 

Expect the Unexpected

to minimize your grieves

Anything can be  happened in a second

Be prepared to face it with daring

Facing the problem

will reduce the serious ness of that problem

Don’t hide your face in the shadows of fear, nor

Seek  to escape  struggles with tears

They come to strengthen you and

they are stepping stones to your victory

Enjoy your happiness  and

bear your pains with smile

Victories are close to failures and

you can be closer to your victory

Expect the changes in every second and

Prepare to move away with this world

Showers may fall in the  summer and

 the sun may shine in autumn

Be prepared to walk in all seasons

Death and births are just like normal happenings

There is nothing more to say

Expect your death at your birth and

hope to live even your last breath

Expecting...

I like your theme, it gives hope along with a dose of reality. A few suggestions, if I may: [1] Anything can happen in a second, be prepared to face it with daring. [2] Do not hide your face in the shadows of fear, nor seek to escape your struggles with tears. [3] Enjoy your happiness, and bear your pains with a smile. [4] Victories are close to failure, and you can be closer to victory. [5] Showers may fall in the summer, and the sun shines in autumn. [6] There is nothing more to say.

hello, friend

I very much enjoyed reading this piece as it is full of wisdom for living. I believe in reincarnation, so death doesn't scare me. Living and dying are very much related, and you capture this well. Thank you for suggesting that I read this poem. Excellent title, good language usage (but I like Geezer's suggestions) and the logic is consistent throughout. Always, Cat
