A Twisted Ploy
Somehow it seems life loses joy
A game, perhaps a twisted ploy
An end to those most tender years
The zest is gone, but life goes on
Till her last welcome breath is drawn
False hopes reality now clears
Somehow it seems life loses joy
A game, perhaps a twisted ploy
No one her age can still recall
The charms of youth that did enthrall
An end to those most tender years
False hopes reality now clears
Somehow it seems life loses joy
A game, perhaps a twisted ploy
