My mother always says,
Life is short.
I have this neighbour,
And I am wondering,
If he is life.

This really got me thinking. Then I read it again and laughed out loud. A good one.

This poem packs an excellent combination of satire, boadering on severity of the word 'life', and making light humour of the brevity of a person.
This indeed is masterfully written by a sound mind. I'd tag this work as 'sublime'.

Apart from the humour, I love the ambiguity of this poem.

LMAO!
Love the fact that it's brief and humorous.
A witty poem and I totally love the way the poet played with words.The title gives off what the poem is about.
Simplicity is key and can be seen in this short poem.
