The Incredible Clever Me

In the wink of an eye Half a century has gone, Did I stop to smell the roses, Was I jubulent in song? Did I succeed at anything Or master a chosen art? Oh at times I was incredible, Sometimes even smart. I've had it all, and lost it Then had it all again, I've sold my soul to the devil, And watched him suck me in. If I could do it over I'd do it all exact, There would be nothing left undone Everything would be in tack. I'd climb the highest mountain, And swim the deepest sea, The world would stop and notice The Incredible, Clever Me. LynnBarany
