If you’re reading this
With spectacles struggling to fit
And a mind struggling to grab a bliss
…of concentration
Know there was a time you were strong
And did to many hearts belong
You did get few decisions wrong
But you sure did feel among
II
If you can walk not without help
Know you did run, jump, hop
And scaled many a wall like a strong cop
You did many weak ones help
So be grateful and accept help
…when offered
III
If you are bedridden
Don’t think you’re a thing life has forsaken
…and love has forbidden
You sure have lived fit
…and have helped yourself to be a blessing
…to many
So accept nature’s weakness
…and journey on as a fortress
IV
Be not envious of the strong
For they might not reach where you now belong
Don’t argue when you think they’re wrong
Reserve your strength for love
For life will teach them the right from wrong
V
You’ve lived through some of the toughest situations
And deserve felicitations every day of your life
So rock happiness and wear peace
Until God calls on you to go blend with the earth
…ending your script for a lifetime
