I Have Been A Lucky Man

I've lived for three years with sixty in time a lengthy span And I have never known it tough I have been a lucky man And if I should die tomorrow a few who know of me might say He did live to be a good age and he had known a better day And whether I am buried or cremated does it matter either way In Mother Nature's bosom what is left of me will lay And Nature I have dearly loved since I was a young boy And walks in her quiet places is a thing I do enjoy Nature's birds will sing on bush and tree long after I am gone And the ocean tides will flood the beach and life it will go on And Nature will look beautiful in her wildflowers of the Spring And the artist will try to capture her beauty on canvas and the poet her praises sing And whether I will be buried or my remains to ashes someone will burn I will be gone forever to the place of no return.
