Let Us Poem by Peter S. Quinn

Let us not be old for too long
For we are inside of need
Like love's feeling or a song
Just what you are and read

Let us just be still inside young
In all that we want and do
Here with the youngsters among
Feel your youthfulness too

Refrain
Every feeling is an obsession
And nothing comes easy to go
Take aim of its comprehension
For life in it you shall know
All is here going to its void
You can't stop where life's going
Some may be though decoyed
Into times of time unknowing

Let us therefore be on strong
For everything's turning
Like love's feeling or a song
That inside is yearning

Let us just do what we desire
Everything has its need
Take on life's keenness with fire
Occasions as they read

Refrain

Let us not be old for too long
For we are inside of need
Like love's feeling or a song
Just what you are and read

Refrain

Let us just be still inside young
In all that we want and do
Here with the youngsters among
Feel your youthfulness too
