Am I a Poet?

Another Wordfull Wednesday to challenge my sleeping neurons! I almost didn't attempt but am glad I did. I have thoroughly forgotten anything I ever learned about writing poems (excepting the obvious rule of rhyme of course), so be kind!

"Proud Life"

Life is busy
I try my best
Finish it and take a rest
I'm proud of that

Life is 'Mom'
I love my boy
Every day he brings such joy
I'm proud of that

Life is fun
I work and play
Sometimes whistle on my way
I'm proud of that

Life is hard
I trip and bruise
Step up quickly not to lose
I'm proud of that

Life is great
I exercise
Try for healthy wealthy wise
I'm proud of that

Life is full
I clear my head
Pride before the fall they said
I'll work on that

Beautiful. An economy of words can be so powerful.
