Life Is Like A Rubik Cube (I.P.)

Life is like a Rubik cube for some.
Multifaceted, full of complicated
problems that they will overcome
only if they are totally dedicated.

At times they might try too hard
to arrive at an apposite solution
then find they are caught off guard
by events that add to the confusion.

They mustn’t give up but try again
and may glimpse the path to take.
It is essential that one remains sane
in order to be rewarded with a break.

Hopelessness and despair may set in
to the point of being physically sick
but hang there and take it on the chin,
the realisation will suddenly click.

Some interesting thoughts there. I wondered if anyone would try something on that line. Rhiannon

It was an afterthought, Rhiannon, to use the cube as a metaphor. Everyone seemed to be writing about the actual Rubik cube and the difficulty of the solution and, in my first attempt, I too followed the trend. Thanks for the feedback.

I really like this Luigi. Thinking outside the box - or outside the cube. A great slant.

Thank you Luke for looking in. Not many have bothered so far.

Kind regards, Luigi.
