Do It Again
A life, years before, had begun,
Now … nearly over and done
Down a lane
Just to obtain
Life’s irrepressible lesson.
‘T is not what we have possessed
That left us so wonderfully blessed
Nor was it beauty,
Nor sense of duty
But how our life’s been assessed.
‘T was treatment of mankind and kin …
The love we expressed from within
To those we met,
And without regret
Would happily do it again.
