Lessons of Life

From you,
I've learned the lessons of life,
I can wear shades with golden rims,
My brightest colors of yellow and green,
or purple, if I so desire

I can run the race and finish well
at fifty or beyond,
with grace and mercy

I can listen to the wind
as he sings me a song
Maybe even dream a dream or two,

I can treasure each day and
know it is a gift!

Such are the lessons of life
