R- Racing (through life)

They prayed for wealth, stayed up at night;
And in the day, worked till they sweat;
They chased the fineries of the world,
But little pain did it erase.

He sought for peace, out far and wide-
Journeyed from cities to forest to land;
And all the worldly he possessed-
Could little his tormented soul impress.

They raced to catch the earliest fish,
Ignoring the beauty of the sea;
He had all the fishes he could eat,
Alas no one to share it with.

He had the wealth, they long sought for-
They had the love he journeyed for;
He chased for theirs and they did his-
And race through out life, they did.

Q- Quake

A quake today,
volcano tomorrow;
Life is too short,
To live for the unknown;
The rifts form at once,
Upsetting- in a moment;
Leaving no stone unturned-
In their vehement destruction;
The quake comes unannounced,
Like the future tomorrow holds;
Live it up and drink it down,
For today is all that we know.
