Click hereTho songs of simpler days are sung
it wasn't simpler being young
though to some its so, I guess
a child lost in a crowded house
found it safest being a little mouse
and then cleaning up the mess.
a teen with all the angst inside
who went along just for the ride
not caring what was best
an adult with a child to raise
no child support and little praise
yet she rose above the rest
I'm older now and looking back
at how I once took up the slack
and always rode the crest
the house is empty 'cept for me
most bills are paid; my time is free
with too much time to rest!
Ahead of me, I hope
are simpler days.
