Talking to My Sister on The Phone one day.

She told me something. It blew me away.

Told me that Our Mother, had finally died.

That Dad did too, I broke down and cried.

Blamed myself for being, part of their Yoke-

for the trouble of My Life. Dementia and a Stroke.

Big Sis reminded me on the same phone:

"It ain't your fault. God called them Home!"

People everyday go and die in a crash.

Every one of those lives, gone in a flash.

Crime and War, and Disease and Hate.

Even Accidents, can decide Your Fate.

You need to look around, at the people You Love.

Your Time on Earth, it comes from Above.

Here's a little wisdom. Knowledge I was given.

Just be Grateful knowing that Life's For The Livin'.

I used to ask myself: 'Why am I here?'

'And why do I exist Year after Year?'

Then I hear a Voice deep down inside:

'You're here to help others, do more than survive!'

I can't go back in time, and re-do My Past.

It's over and done. That Die's been Cast.

All I can do, is Live Correct Today-

and for every Tomorrow HE sends My Way.

Schools get Shot Up. Journalists at Risk.

Just for telling The Truth, Believe This!

Hate Groups growing. They all get stronger.

Every day they add another Hate Warmonger.

Whole Families, kicked out on The Street-

because of COVID-19, and no food to eat.

Manufacturing's gone. No one wants a job.

These same people wonder, why they steal and rob.

I got one final verse, and then I'm done.

Tell it to Your Young Uns. Daughters and Sons.

Watch Yourself, everywhere that you go.

Anything can happen to you, YOU MUST KNOW!

And as for The Elders? Treat them with Respect.

We owe every single one of them, A Huge Debt-

because of what They Know, We're Alive To-day.

Be kind. Treat them Right. There's The Reasons I say, because:

'Tick Tock, Tick Tock, Tick Tock People,

Time's Slippin' Away.'

Life's For The Livin!

Finis.
