Listen to poem:
In a Flash
Sixty years flashed by in one big blur
A life with scatterings of luck and good times
No, I certainly can’t complain ~
Obstacles and challenges made me who I am today
Could have tried harder but harbor no remorse
I figure I’ll be ready to face my Maker
But till then, I’ll strive to live at least a few more years ~
Long enough to compensate for wasted time along the way
