Tick Tock

Well its that time of year once again
When the hairs a counted with a grin
An time stands still for the day
While memories serve up the past i did play
What year was it my ma gave birth
As i lie through my teeth for all its worth
When lifes plateau knows no age
An numbers count for nothing upon the stage
For the spirit of the soul you know so well
When nourished properly won't allow you to dwell
Just enjoy every second that belongs to you
Because hiccups in life are nothing new
Sacrifices an hard work to be where i am
Not where i want to be but i had no plan
Survive what i thought i needed to
Enjoyed myself too through an through
Regrets i'll shelve in the cupboard of wisdom
Wince once in awhile to balance my kingdom
I have been blessed to have had food in my belly
Black an white tv an clothes not smelly
A roof to keep the weather out
A home of peace no need for shout
An for everyone that touched my soul
I made it this far it was always my goal
Without your presence it would have been hard
Though nothing like grans bread an lard
So thanks for being there along the way
Its been a journey an another year to the day
