You peg away all your life
You amass all you can
You were born to do just that my friend
Or so thinks every man
You gallop faster by the day
You practice till you drop
You must keep up, with the racing pack
Lest they term you, a total flop
If you’re a man, you take a wife
And then a few kids beget
If you’re a young lass
You often marry in haste
Then live a life of regret
But life itself
Is such a merry mix
Of exuberance, love, and strife
Of pursuits, goals, enemies, and moles
And friends, ready to stab you with a knife
So, watch your step- watch where you go
It’s not all cherries and cream
There’s poison ivy
Venomous rattle snakes too
Not always a pleasant dream
That’s life my friend
It’s your time on earth
So, live it the best way you can
Face the ups and the downs– take the good with the bad
But always be the better man
