Counting

You count on your safety as you crawl around And count on your parents to not let you down You count on your lessons to find your way Counting on what's learned, to be there to stay You'll be counting money, sheep and stars above When you need to buy, or to sleep, or to love You count on the clock, so you won't be late After counting calories of food you ate That's a lot of counting, make sure of your math Something not counted on may be in your path Then over the hill's where you start to count down Slowly then one by one when there's no one around Hoping you're remembered as more good than bad You punch out, counting all the blessings you had!
