Life and Away We Go

Life and away we go, we are born crying needing diapers and bottles. Then off to school to learn all the rules, then comes dates both fun and maddening. Life and away we go, a beautiful wedding~marriage. A new life is beginning, with a baby or two or three. Life and away we go, the cycle now starts all over. For us grand-kids to enjoy, the days turning into years. Life and away we go, now in our senior days, The days are getting slower, with memories and photos galore. Life and away we go, what a Marathon we have run. Date Written:7/3/2022
