"My Diploma of Life"
Now there may be some who does
Not like the word "OLD"
It's in the way you look at, it if I
May be so bold~
I feel life is a lesson, that must be
Learned along the way~
Takes time, to get there, and much
Work for every day~
Kind of like a diploma that you
Have worked hard to earn~
Where your knowledge is priceless
Of what you have learn~
Sometimes the youth has to travel
So far to receive~
Now that I am old, this is just on
How I believe~
I got some A's along the way.
Some lower still~
But each one I really earned going
Up my Hill~
In storage I put all of what I
Might have lack~
Now I am able to use it, and can
Call It back~
This wisdom can only come with
Age you see~
And it is known to be priceless
To you and me~
So to call me old...well I must say
I do Feel bless~
Now that I am here, Oh now
I've earned My rest~
