We all have a life's journey to undertake <br />And out of what we have only the most we can make <br />Even the circumstance of birth is like the luck of the draw <br />For millions life it surely is like Murphy's Law <br />For each day brings them hardship and adds to their woe <br />And happiness they are not meant for to know <br />For them it does seem uphill all of the way <br />And that's how it will be till their last night and day <br />To be born to poor parents is their only crime <br />And they look middle aged though only in their prime <br />Their children like them born into poverty <br />'Tis a vicious circle would you not agree <br />Few of them ever live on to grow old and gray <br />Life's not meant to be easy not for many anyway.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/like-murphy-s-law/
