Our Bottoms Get Heavy

When we're young'uns, our hourglass is full Surrounded by fillies, we charge ahead like a bull With the passage of time The sands realign Our bottoms get heavy and we run out of fuel

Our bottoms are heavy but our mind's still afloat...searching for answers in a old wooden boat...the waves make us sway...but still here were stay...handing out praises with fantastic love notes

Grab a bagel, take a nap... and full steam ahead... Don't want to waste any of it... even if we are slower at getting there... LOL... What to do next?... Decisions... Decisions!... As I get older... I let Dragon and Grandpa Troll do all the heavy lifting... you might say... LOL
