I may not have the skip in my walk <br />Or the strength I once had as a lad. <br />However when I look at a star, it’s still <br />A discovery - I’ve yet! - To explain <br /> <br />My learning never ceases, curiosity <br />Is a blessing I’ve always had <br />I’m still at awe, at the wonders in the <br />World - my interest lie in an endless domain <br /> <br />I’ll never be an old fogy, who claims to know <br />It all, and nothin - left to learn <br />For I haven’t as yet - begun to unraveled the <br />Mysteries of life -in an attempt to answer <br />Questions which are still impending <br /> <br />Troubles in our world, I cannot shun, - because <br />I have - a profound concern <br />The dream of peace and love is within as all - a <br />Dream which has no ending <br /> <br />I have no doubt there is a God, for all we are - <br />And see - is all of his creation <br />Ev’n him, I wonder if he has a master plan, in <br />Which we are all a part <br /> <br />Are we here to seek salvation, or to make this <br />World our key vocation? <br />To live with love as our sole objective, when we <br />Die, we depart with a fulfillment within our heart<br /><br />Dave Tanguay<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/getting-old-i-don-t-think-so-poem/
