The Race

Live a life
Die alone
Shine as bright as a shooting star
Fade into the darkness of night

What we give
What we leave
Not for us
Always for others

We encompass the world
We fly straight and true
Then we are done
Then we are alone

Smile and laugh
Shed a tear or two
Then continue on
For there is more to do

Yes, we live
Yes, we die
We have finished the race
We have run true to form

Given our all
Given our best
Now we leave
Now we say: Goodbye

 

Written in  honor of  George H.W. Bush, may he rest in peace and may his loved ones continue the fight for what is right, for themselves and for our County.
