I often remember, as I sit all alone,
The years that have passed.
For the time, it has flown
The paths in my life,
The choices I made,
Joy in some, but others, strife.
The agony of failure,
The happiness of success,
All life gives, in itself a treasure
Allowing to often, the pain and strife,
The lack in ability,
To comprehend, it is a path in life
Then I remember, how I could forget,
A day in April, many years ago,
A beautiful wedding, with the woman I’d met
A path in life, I was fortunate to choose,
Through all the years, both sorrow and joy,
A path chosen well, one I wish to never loose.
