The Journey of life by Colin W Shaw.
.........................................
Life is but a shallow time between two distant stars,
like the passing of the age from the horse to motorcar.
Its only something borrowed, not really ours to keep
and when its all said and done we merely fall to sleep.
Life is what we make of it, life is what we will,
We think we live it to the full, we think we do but still. We never really know if what we've done is what we could, we never really know if what we've done is what we should. We never really know if what we've done is for the best, we never really know until we put it to the test. And if there is a god up above and he sticks to his plan, never fear of failures as we are only mortal man. For friendship is what its all about the great eternal plan. For friendships everlasting the brotherhood of man. We all may not find happiness but I know that I'm content, with what my life has given me I know that it was meant. Some people on this road of life regret, some think they have it made but yet. They haven't really found the things their searching for, they haven't found them because no-one kept the score. Like the movement of the tide that washes in then washes out, we must all try our best to ride our life throughout. And ride we will and side we must with good friends that we make, along this narrow road of life those friends we wont forsake. For life is but a memory of when we are awake,
life is but a memory of love and give and take.
Of lovely dreams we all once had that when they fell we cried, because life and death are lovers they bed down side by side. But there are some like me who know the score and can see the tunnels end, so when the lights have faded, remember me as a friend....
