Forty and Free

Woke up today feeling new Sunshine bright the sky so blue Forty years gone still more to do Life ahead it's all in view Every wrinkle tells my tale Not afraid to try and fail Love and laughter never stale In this life I will prevail Forty and free Dancing in the streets Every moment sweet Life's a melody Friends beside me through the years Shared in joys and dried my tears Now we toast with happy cheers Forty's just begun no fears In this mirror I see strength Journey's long and full in length Living life with fierce intent Loving every moment spent Age a number not a cage Turn the page and set the stage Forty's just another phase Time to shine in endless ways Every wrinkle tells my tale Not afraid to try and fail Love and laughter never stale In this life I will prevail Forty and free Dancing in the streets Every moment sweet Life's a melody Friends beside me through the years Shared in joys and dried my tears Now we toast with happy cheers Forty's just begun no fears In this mirror I see strength Journey's long and full in length Living life with fierce intent Loving every moment spent Age a number not a cage Turn the page and set the stage Forty's just another phase Time to shine in endless ways ways Time to just begun no fears No fears
