"Life Is Like A River" - (Poem from the Book: Superhuman)
Life is like a river, Flowing like water. No matter what, It moves forward.
Abundance of life, Only if you perceive it right.
You can look back, But can't go back. If you try, You'll only cry.
If you're asleep, You'll gaze outside. If you're awake, You'll see inside.
Look within, And you'll realize, You're not a slave, But a divine king.
Nature is your kingdom, And you are the king. Ego is a lock, Love is the key.
Everything you wish, Your wish is a command. Without gratitude, There's no commend.
Be certain in your wish, Wish as your wish.
Life is like a river, Flowing like water. No matter what, It moves forward.
Poem by: Dr. Andrew Rozario
