The Mystery of Life

Mystery Of Life The Springs of my life have gone astray Gold leaves of Autumn swiftly decay The Bird of Youth has flown away But then…he was never meant to stay Winter’s chills have finally sprung My seasons of life have all been flung Yet all my songs have not been sung In my heart and spirit…I’m still young! LOVE is the answer to life’s mystery Envy and greed lead to misery Treat your neighbor, as you would like to be And wonder of wonders…so will he! And when the curtains of night are drawn And death comes to call at early dawn You’ll leave this earth a better place You’ve made a difference in the human race.
