Your Life Through Stages

Your life through stages By Michelle Morris 13/08/2020 In the morning of your life, You'll feel like you have All the time in the world; You'll be enthusiastic and Fearless, and without any Limits unfurled... Simultaneously, you'll be Surrounded by people who Want to mould you, Shape you into boxes That fit their world view... Don't allow anyone to break Your stride, limit you or Harm your pride; You need to take pause and Focus on the type of person You want to be - Hopefully good and kind and Generous will be your legacy... In the noontide of your life, You'll be looking back at how Far you've come And looking forward to see If there's still time for Dreams to run... Don't be thwarted by the Limitations of time or age - You're never to old to learn anew Or with life to re-engage... No matter your circumstances, You can always start again; It just takes dedication and Willpower that never ends... Don't be put off by Whatever challenges you face; The race is not yet done And the demons you've got to face Won't be the best of you... If you focus on Always choosing good, Because good always wins And allows a conscience Clear of sin... In the evening of your life, You'll be looking back upon Your path, and hopefully wonder If you changed many hearts... To improve the planet And life thereon Would be the best of lives lived And worthy of a song... © Michelle Morris, 2020
