Life's a Hoot

Today is the first day of the rest of our lives No matter how much time we have left A sobering thought as we reach our golden years Our number could be up tomorrow, next week, next year So we must enjoy life to the fullest, make every day count We don't get to go around a second time When we're young whipper snappers Old age is eons into the future Our main concern is dealing with everyday life With all of it's ups and downs, it's uncertainties With romance, with choosing a vocation But when all is said and done and we near retirement It's all water under the bridge So what I'm saying to all you young folks Live your life to the fullest Make every single day count as if it was your last Tell your loved ones every day how much they mean to you In case you don't get another chance Life's a hoot... enjoy it!
