Strive
October 11, 2017
Poker Poem
We all desire to be successful in life
We strive to achieve something big
Everyone
wants
to
live
h a p p i l y
ever
after
Every child stares at their idol in awe
Trying wildly to become as great as them (simile)
But as we get older, life becomes more intense
We twist and turn as we try to juggle all of our responsibilities
(alliteration)
But the struggles are too great and we crash
