I Live In My Own Way

Of my own shortcomings i am all too aware
And what others say of me i cannot say i much care
I live in my own way and do my own thing
And i only hope to be living to see next Spring
When Nature is blooming everywhere around me
And nesting birds chirp and sing on bush and tree
And Mother Earth she is looking lush and green
And Nature at her very finest is seen
In this Human World where many for this thing known as success compete
For most in life every day some new challenge to meet
I feel too old for others to be trying to impress
And feel no desire to compete for success
I just live in my own way and do my own thing
And i hope to be living for to see next Spring.
