Life revolves,life just flies
As soon as you are grown, the time rolls quickly by
The decades change perceptions and what we like to do
Time compresses, the years are quickly through
There the many milestones that mark the passage of time
Lust, love, births and marriages, career progression make quite a line
There was a time to party, and drink unlimited booze
Then bedtime gets much earlier, we opt to stay and snooze
Running up the stairs was always such a breeze
Now its more a gentle walk with more than the hint of wheeze
We used to love to travel to far flung flung exotic places
That hasn’t changed but check what we now pack in our cases
Our taste in music was bang on trend
Now the latest fad is unintelligable and drives us round the bend
We used to have so much energy, we could over ride fatigue
Now we suffer aches and pains, our energy is under siege
Lifes one long continuum, needs and priorities change
Just keep a reckoning of all your major gains
Remember that child inside remains forever young
Live it up and enjoy each decade as it comes
Life revolves, life just flies
As soon as you are grown, the time rolls swiftly by.
