Description
Father time
And mother nature
Have been working together on me
My how the years have gone by
I look out on this cold winter day
And remember better days
The wind that use to lift me
Now sends a message to my bones
That I am getting old
As I think back on my youth
Tears run down my face
So many dreams
Gone by the way side now
I lived my whole life in the moment
Even when I thought to myself
Think ahead
I just never could
It was just never in me
I am not ashamed of anything I have done
But I have many regrets
For the things
I have never done
I pray the great beyond
Has mercy on my soul
For as I know I have lived by the moment
I know I shall die by the moment

WOW! Very moving words! Very appropriate to just about eeryone here. I know it fits me too well, thank you!
You have beautifully expressed many thoughts that are in my heart. Very well done, my friend!
It has been said more than once that, at the end of your life, you do not regret the things you've done but the things you did not do. As the Moody Blues sang, 'So much time to make up, everywhere you turn, time we have wasted on the way.' So I have tried to put my regrets behind me because I don't have that much time left and I have a lot to make up. Check out my response to you in my upload 'Look Down The Road.'
Very beautiful love the mood.....regrets are like poisin....
Time goes faster as we get older, that's for sure!

Yes indeed. Time is catching up with us all my friend, but as someone once said, I dont want to end my days very old and with a reasonably healthy body, I want to slide to my grave with a glass of champagne in my hand, body totaly knackered and thinking WOW I enjoyed that ride..
