On Second Thought
The days go by
The months all fly
The years all pile up
It went so fast
It didn't last
Since I was just a pup
Childhood into adolescent
Adolescent to the present
Yet not enough to fill my cup
All the places never been
All the sights never seen
So much unknown still to sup
***
But what of all that I have done
It's truly been a mighty run
Filling volumes of adventure
And when mortality takes its final hit
Looking back on most of it
There really isn't much that I would censure
