A lifetime full of motley shades,
some vibrant a few hued blue
Few transpired as likely strokes,
while some unceremoniously undue
How ostensible to get typecast
get served many a terse blow
With stabs in the back deepest
with twisting motions very slow
Expected storms can be endured
not the gusts of winds wild
One learns to ingest toughest
but the malleable intake mild
Familiarly known are the judges,
the jury and proverbial situate
Where awards are preordained
judgments curtly seal your fate
Millions may be in reckoning
with a few one gets to equate
Who believe in your objectivity
and to your core values relate
Subsistence is greatest tutor,
keeps guiding till the end
Few memories fondly cherished
and all people you truly befriend
