Life In Our Golden Age

This is the age we've been looking forward to,
the age we've been waiting for -
all our working life...
for it is that time of our life
when we are able to do what our heart desires -
not what the whole world dictates...

For as i approach this coveted moment in life
i find a calmness in my heart, in my soul,
i find peace in my life and a patience
that was never there in my youthful days...
for a youth will not tarry, nor stop to quiry
a youthful heart will live life seeking glory
and there was nothing to ever worry -
and loving is with such intensity...!

But now as i reach this golden age in life
i tend to take things easy - not full of fury!
i tend to sit more and contemplate more -
something that a fast track life would never carry;
i tend to wake up each morning to look at the sky:
a sunrise with all the promise of a beautiful day,
i tend to admire the sunset with its coat of glory;
i look up at the night sky to see the smiling moon -
and know that two little stars would be shining in my eyes...

i look at love and happiness as i look at life:
still full of passion and intensity -
yet full of care and appreciation,
and a lifetime of promises to enjoy, with you...
