Tempus Fugit

My oh my, how time doth flee! Seems only yesterday I was at my Mother's knee. So much water has trickled over the weirs, Now, here I am well advanced in years! Off to school for a proper education, Teachers filling my skull for my edification. Some of the stuff actually rubbed off on me, And shockingly I obtained a college degree! A job I must get my folks did insist, So off to the Air Force I went to enlist. I thought, this ain't a bad career to pursue, So for thirty years I wore the Air Force suit of blue! I married and have a very sweet wife, That's an experience that'll change your life! Along came kids to make the family complete. Being a husband and father is really neat! Becoming a grandpa left me amazed, But when a great grandpa, I was really dazed! Too bad there is no way time to postpone. I look back and wonder where time has gone! Robert L.
