Fifty years have come and gone
Two thirds of life a memory holds
How quickly time eludes the grasp
How soon the journey’s path does end
Yet with time a wisdom grows
Insightful to the last
A will that struggles to stay the course
Holding on to innocence
Pushing back against a hardened heart
Preferring happiness to sorrow
The past banished to the past
Finding the future in tomorrow’s dawn
Always Living in the now
Never harming along the way
No boundary holds the heart
Embracing love at every turn
Moving on beyond despair
Letting go of entangled ways
Hoping in some my memory stays
So much more to learn
