Life is Not Over Yet...

 

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...
