Catching a breath or two,
On the climb of life,
Trying to reach the summit.
A challenge that each day brings,
Is met with determination.
For the spirit is willing, body weak.
Age has no descrimination,
For each has so many breaths left.
Anticipation of happiness waits.
Spread your wings of thought,
And you can fly beyond the morrow;
Where eagles have been, and you will roost.
