Only A Guest

The greatest love I ever knew I found the day I met you The greatest day in my life Was when you became my wife Then you gave to us a son That's when life became great fun Teaching him things he had to know He got smarter as he continued to grow As he got older it was plain to see He no longer needed you and me He was old enough to branch out on his own He no longer needed the safety of home The years passed by with such speed As we were getting older indeed Soon simple tasks were difficult to do The pains of growing old we finally knew The winters seem colder then they ever were Life continues to pass in a blur I've enjoyed it all both good and bad The happy times even the sad You see, in every life so much goes on That before you know it, it will all be gone So, I'll sit back and enjoy the time that's left Remember, by being born here we are still only a guest 11-14-18/RjH
