1st attempt — Life is. . .

Life is a dream,

crusade, choice,

country, quarry,

illusion, shadow, story,

highway, horizontal fall,

pilgrimage, roller-coaster,

mystery, miracle ride,

game, gamble, glass of wine,

tide, test,

banquet, jest,

jazz,

boomerang, battle, book,

bowl of cherries,

box of chocolates,

a love letter. . .

2nd attempt — Life is. . .

To be succinct:

Life is

death isn’t.

Chalkboard Prompt: Life by Aaska Ejaz
