Day 17: Life

from NicoleLeaf Poetry Hosted by Nicole Leaf

Day 17: Life Life is like a hill. Some hills are steeper than others. One step at a time, We struggle through life, We rest and take breaks, And we go back up the hill. Till one day, We want to turn around And forget it all. Then we remind ourselves Of all the things we overcame, All the challenges and the disappointments, The pain and the sorrow, All of the happy tears. Life is something you just can’t see. No one knows what lies ahead… No one But God. Till one day, we realize it was all worth it.

Song Against Songs, The by G. K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011. Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia ) London Review Bookshop Podcast London Review Bookshop Listen to the latest literary events recorded at the London Review Bookshop, covering fiction, poetry, politics, music and much more.
