In Search of Gusto

In Search of Gusto
Dr. James E. Martin
©March, 2014

Life in the fast lane
Is what some desire.
To get all the gusto
Before they retire.

They give it their all,
They each other inspire.
To go one beyond
Is what they desire.

Then one day they’re old
And no longer can acquire.
It’s off to the sunset
To quietly expire!
