Reflection

Is that me I see

Looking back at me?

Where did the time go?

Have I grown that old?

What have I done?

Did I have any fun?

Have I made many happy?

Or do I make them jumpy?

Is that really me I see?

A tinge of sadness in me

For I can't remember much

Of the times I went Dutch.

Have I done enough?

Or is my life just a trough?

Makes me shudder to think

If I had live my life to the brink.

It's too late now to regret

It is as good as it gets

We live our lives the way we know how

And hope it's worthy of a good bow.
