How Many Miles In a Lifetime

LYING SILENT IN MY HOSPITAL BED
NO INSPIRATION CAME TO MY HEAD
THEN A NURSE WAS HEARD TO SAY
AN INTERESTING QUESTION TO INSPIRE WORD PLAY

HOW MANY MILES IN A LIFETIME?

I REMEMBER IN THE BIBLE TEN TIMES AND TEN
A TIME TO GIVE UP AND CALL IT WHEN!
ONCE AN OLD MAN GAVE ME GOOD ADVICE
TREASURE EVERY DAY YOU DO NOT LIVE TWICE!
DO NOT CARRY A LIFES HEAVY LOAD
A CLEAR CONCIENCE BRINGS LIFES LONGEST ROAD!
