The age of reason
Has come and gone
Deceit and pleasure
Are number one
Young I thought
Life is long
Now times goes by
A passing gong
The thrill of life
Is in the learning
Living on the edge
Lacks all discerning
Wisdom comes
Too late for most
The body is weak
Our soul’s host
Truth and beauty
Sounds like a chime
Yet evils lurks
Throwing on it
Lies of slime
To seek true joy
In life, ain’t easy
The right path
Not for weak kneed
Many go wrong
With thoughts
Of second chances
There is no going back
No happenstances
Cherish the beauty
Open your heart
To love
Then it will lift
Heart and mind
Way up above
In an instant
This plane is gone
Only good spirits
Spring eternally on
