Vapor

VAPOR! By Paul David Powers! 
Life is but a vapor, flowers bloom and die! 
But we have a destiny, a purpose, reason rhyme! 
In the beginning is the searching to find the person you 
The Beatles and the Stones, Ed Sullivan Show we knew! 

The Hippie Counterculture, A Hippie I became! 
Christian Hippies came along saying Jesus is the Way!  
So, I took the gospel message, to the people on the streets, 
Took my wife and daughter, to sow the Gospel seed! 

Thought nothing ever shake me, the day it came apart, 
My marriage it was over, that day she broke my heart! 
I threw myself in study, three degrees from school, 
But I couldn’t fix my home, my family it was through! 

Now in my late 60’s won’t say again I Do, 
But want to find me one last love,  
before my days are through,  
A Lover and a Partner, someone just like you!
