As Our Lifes' Changes

We all search for happiness We enjoy even the thought We hope for all things of brightness To join us as along life's road we trod. Just trying to reach the top Unknowing exactly what the top is We work hard as young adults Just like little honey bees We gather our goods Putting them all into our nest. We journey on along Hoping we are with our final mate Even tho somedays are diamonds And some are stones Just like Neil Diamond said in his song. So what is the meaning of it all As age creeps into our bodies You get older and yes you become wiser But you are also much trier now As age has a way of doing that to you For it is all a part of the aging picture. When your mind as well as your body Finally realizes That these things you thought were so important Can't go with you as your final journey you do make They are left here for someone else to look through And to complain about what a mess you have made!
