In some sense, it could be argued a category about Life is a vague, nebulous cop-out. Any poem ever penned by Man or Woman would surely gain ready admittance here. All poems, almost by definition, are about Life. But don't, for a moment, think that makes this category any less important. On the contrary, if the poems and topics you are about to explore are about Life, then they are also about you. No one person can ever experience all that life has to offer. It is only through sharing - experiences, feelings, insights - that we can hope to grow beyond our own meager lifetime. Are you ready to grow today?

| Poems on Life continued | Author |
| I Saw You Crying | Tara |
| When you see a stranger who needs help, what do you do? Do you step forth and offer your assistance... or do you ignore them and continue on your own way? | |

| Absence Of Love | Marge Tindal |
| What once seemed trivial can gain immense importance as the years slip by. | |

| Someone Else | Roche |
| This deeply insightful poem explores a very common malady we all face at one time or another. Some, perhaps, more than others. | |

| The Loser | Chuck Pool |
| Life is so full of lessons but one people never seem to learn is about self-acceptance. | |
| Death Of A Dream | Amis Lee |
| This is a short but very beautiful poem about an important Truth - in our quest for some things, they can all too easily be destroyed. | |
| Violated | Tina K |
| A cliché often has Truth hidden within, but it's not always the Truth you would see on the surface. | |
| My Life Philosophy | Camry Alexis |
| We should all have a Life Philosophy, something that guides us in our decisions. This is one… | |
