Days of a Life
In the morning of my life,
I was young, and carefree,
The world was mine to have,

Career, ambition, I got head strong,
There was a vision, a future so bold,
Images became a burst of color
In the evening of my life,
I retired, children left home,
The world became calm again,
I did not need a vision,
I was looking back to see,
how days of my life used to be.
Images now come in shades of gray
