407 (07.08.2015)

So now the first forty-nine years are gone,
And my fiftieth year stretches off ahead
And I have calm and time to think upon
The life to come and the life that I've led.
Of course there have been ups and downs so far,
And I guess there'll be more of those to come,
Yet no matter how bad things sometimes are
I've always found that as a rule of thumb:
When friends are near the clouds are not so grey,
When family's close then storms pass quickly by.
So at the start and ending of each day
I send a little prayer into the sky
That all my friends and family's lives will be,
As blest as their life's blessing blesses me.
