The Anthem of life

Life is a chance, grab it.
Life is beauty, love.
Life is a blessing, enjoy.
Life is a dream, make it happen.
Life is a challenge, face it.
Life is duty, get it done.
Life is a game, play it.
Life is precious, take care of him.
Life is wealth, appreciate.
Life is love, live.
Life is a mystery, find out
Life is a promise, keep it.
Life is sorrow, get over it.
Life is a hymn, sing it.
Life is struggle, accept it.
Life is an adventure, take a risk.
Life is life, protect.

that is lovely.

I have a small plaque on the wall in the hall which reads,

'The Alba House Rules'

if you drop it, pick it up
if you sleep in it, make it
if you open it, close it
if you empty it, fill it up
if it rings, answer it
if it cries, love it

(not a patch on yours Maggie)
That's life! Thank you. Very good..
'That's Life' - a cracking Frank Sinatra song :-D
I'm singing it in my head now Albs!... Yes great song..
used to have it on a 78, Patsy
(oh my, no, I'm not that old!!)
a 78, no way, albs....I'm just a 60-something

That's not my age; it's just not true.
My heart is young; the time just flew.
I'm staring at this strange old face,
And someone else is in my place!

My body's not in disrepair.
I've not much grey in my lurid hair.
I sometimes feel a little tired
But go for s..gs when I'm inspired.

This old age thing is not for me.
Concessions given, prescriptions free.
I'll just pretend I'm in my prime.
To age too fast would be an AB crime.

I'm just not 60+ in my head.
It's still so long till I am truly dead,
So please don't see me in that way.
I'm staying young, if that's OK!

when some ab'ers reveal their age, - as in birth years - it's scary.

Being 80 is middle-aged :-)

Lovely poem xx
