Where do the lost moments of life lie, That I may come and visit them? Too many of mine are there- Wish it weren't so. We don't do it carelessly, It just happens. I can't blame it on old age As it happened long before. O may my mind remain alert And let it savor what life gives. We have such a brief stay, Let us make the most of it.
