LIFE’S CROOKED ROAD

Upon life’s crooked road –

We have to carry such a heavy load!

We can only watch as time goes by,

And at times we have a need to cry,

But it comes down to choices we made

And all the building blocks we laid –

Fame and fortune – never a guarantee

So why don’t we just let that be . . .

Today is today – it’s a moment in life –

There’ll be troubles that bring us strife!

Upon life’s crooked road –

I can assure you a prince is not a toad!

All we can do is hope for tomorrow –

And be able to lend instead of borrow.
