Life on the Trail
Galloping along the trail of life
Carefree and irresponsible
Not worrying about things that may cause me strife
Finding life ahead quite improbable
Before I can finish above what I said
Came the soulmate for the rest of my life
In a wink of an eye we were happily wed
Sticking to vows making us husband and wife
Trotting together on a fast paced journey
On the lane straight ahead was our life
Came a curve in the road we reined 'em in firmly
But what happened was really quite nice
Now three of us rode, one on a pony
Keeping up he had rode for his life
Raising him up, the road was quite stoney
But together the three of us thrived
Along our path t'was like life in the city
Our teen loped from one plan to another
The two of us had slowed down, what a pity
We barely kept up to our son's world of wonder
Now plodding along what remained was the dust
Of our son riding off on his own
Who would have guessed what had come of our lust
Was the best thing that we've ever known
With a family of his own he rarely stops moving
When he does, we meet on the trail
All in all I find it quite amusing
We're being passed by each turtle and snail
