Almost a grip
Is not a farmer’s reap
A life with no tip
Is not quite a good keep
Growing up old
Facing stories untold
As it unfolds
Grab it tight it is gold
Now the wiseman is old
Just as the wisdom he told
Giving guidance
We cannot just let go
Step by step like so
Till we get our goal
Even if we seem to fail
I am sure we’re not the tail.
