The Seasons To Our Poem by Francis Duggan

The seasons to our lives do come and do go
And eventually time becomes everyone's foe
Three score and ten years the average human life span
And a few years more for a woman than it is for a man
And nothing in life ever does seem to last
On looking back in time the prime years went so fast
Time does not wait for anyone it ticks and ticks away
And the great gift of youth with us has a brief stay
The best years of our lives in a decade has gone
And the biological clock it does tick on and on
And for each one of us there is a final Fall
The journey in life it does end for us all.
