Challenges
Mark A. England 1960 (Phoenix)
We enter Life, from Mortal birth,To Parents young and old;
From Whence we came, A Mortals test,
To grow, and try our best;
Each one of us, will face this life,
With Challenges, their own;
It’s crystal clear, as time goes on,
A greater Man than I;
Has faced this life, for All Mankind,
To show it can be done;
No matter what we face each day,
The Challenge of our time;
For you, for me, for everyone,
There are no two alike;
And when we ask ourselves why me,
The answer lies beyond;
For oftentimes, the challenge met,
The cross we took to bare;
Will find the answer all so clear,
Beyond this Hemisphere.
By: Mark A. England

Man’s search for answers, facing obstacle’s! We all have asked, why me-DearLord! The answer very difficult, One day you’ll get to see.
