Re: Bucket List
This poem is very apt for this thread for the oldies......
Today, dear Lord, I'm 90 and there's much I haven't done.
I hope, dear Lord, you'll let me live until I'm 91.
But then I haven't finished, all I want to do,
Would you let me stay awhile until I'm 92?
So many places to go, so very much to see,
Do you think you could manage to make it 93?
The world is changing very fast, there is so much in store,
I think I'd like to live until I'm 94.
And if I'm feeling pretty well, I'll know I'm still alive,
I'd like to see what the world is like when I turn 95.
More planes will be up in the air, so I'd really like to stick
Around to see what happens to the world when I'm 96.
I know, dear Lord, it's much to ask and it must be nice in Heaven,
But really..... I would like to stay until I'm 97.
I know by then I'm getting slow and sometimes very late,
But it would be so pleasant to be here at 98.
I will have seen so many things and had a wonderful time,
So I'm sure I will be willing to leave at 99.
