As I look South, my back to the North
Across the lake the cars go forth
At breakneck speeds beyond belief
And in my soul there's great relief...
They race to work at 6 am
And from Windy Hill I say "Amen"
Then they turn, running home at 4
Their purpose I too pursued before
I hope they find reason to answer the call
An internal drive to give it their all
And no matter what - to fight the good fight
To face all challenges with strength and might
Like many have done in times long past
I too fought the good fight up to the last
I diligently gave the world my best
And now that it's o're, I relish the rest...
And the cars I see trigger reverie
Of a life before, a distant memory
Was it worth it? - I sometimes ponder
Without a doubt says my responder...
But life is not over so we look ahead
The mission: To LIVE - until we are dead
So bring on new adventure, one day at a time
Living moment by moment...line by line...
Life has been full for this ol' boy
Challenging work, deep love and joy
God is so faithful, His mercy so great
And for the next adventure - - - we hardly can wait!
Let the adventure continue...
