Like the sun that sets for a day’s end<\/p>\n
Like the leaves that fall down the bend<\/p>\n
Like the rains that fall when it can’t hold<\/p>\n
Yes, to bid and to end is a move so bold.<\/p>\n
For the sun should be out for the moon to be seen<\/p>\n
And the leaves should fall for new ones so clean<\/p>\n
And the rains should fall to wipe away the tears<\/p>\n
Yes, to bid and to end will welcome new cheers<\/p>\n
So if it’s time for my life to take it’s final bow<\/p>\n
I will walk gracefully and I will show you how<\/p>\n
How I faired in this world with my poems and my verse<\/p>\n
And enjoy your applause which I know ain’t rehearsed<\/p>\n
So the life I have borrowed I’ll return to the Boss<\/p>\n
And I hope I could get a high-sounding “kudos”<\/p>\n
Thanks to you thanks to you I have had a good one<\/p>\n
With my man with my child and my poems that are fun.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
