Excellence Award in the 'Word Zone 2016' competition

Life is a puzzle, waiting to be solved
For all those young, and all those old

Mum used to say, that life is unfair
So don't go sooking on the chair

"There are no Limits" she always said
When she tucked me into bed

Now with children of my own
I tell them this before they leave home

"Life won't always go your way, just try your hardest and it may change."

This is my life motto, dear friend
Just keep trying till the End!!
