I have a house to live in
I have food to eat,
I know to throw rubbish in a bin
and I can occasionally afford meat.
I am in a reasonable state of health
my brain is still relatively sharp,
I have stopped worrying about wealth
and no longer listen to people who carp.
My future is a blank slate
though dependent on other people’s choices
and decisions only I can make,
with guidance from my inner voices.
So, apart from choices and decisions
that will shape the years to come
with all the detail and precisions
which determine if I have any fun –
Life is Good.
