A Lesson in Life
November 2, 2009
Listen well to what I say
If you don’t you may go astray,
Though their tale begins with hope
It ends on a sad note
They worked all day
Sowing the wheat and the hay
At last, they were done;
The war won
There was unity when they started out,
But soon came a split of doubt.
Two generals, one army
That’s a cause for disharmony
The wheel of time turns
And memory burns
We’ve returned to the beginning
Of the ending
Listen well to what I say
If you don’t you may go astray
Though their tale began with hope
It ended on a sad note
