Call of the Unknown
Rush of life for me is over
Insidious age has me ensnared
Fond look back at days in clover
Of twilight years am too aware.
Shadows gather at warp speed
With stoicism must face my fear
With footsteps of faith, I proceed
Silent goodbye to all things dear.
Bound by rotating wheel of life
Rising, falling endless chain
Through laughter, tears, and daily strife
From birth until this life force wains.
Going ahead to who knows where
Positive thoughts are invisible guide
Time to be brave refuse to be scared
Universe is vast where will I abide?
