Sunset Of His Years

His precious little child Many years ago A father smiles in pride He loves that baby so Isn’t it amazing How life slowly begins And how time flies by so fast Heads toward the end? But in between those years A child becomes a man Raises a wonderful family To grow on his red dirt land Another generation Behind him then will grow He has raised his family well The time came to let them go And so then he's in The sunset of his years Many amazing sunsets Through happiness and tears He takes the time to treasure The sunrise when the day begins And enjoys each hour till sunset Through the camera lens!
