My Life's Journey Has Not Taken Me

My life's journey has not taken me to literary renown
Far south of Claraghatlea just west of Millstreet Town
Where on old Clara Mountain as ever looks down
Where i used to live when my hair was dark brown
Just one more who has known of a better day
Time has left me looking older and balding and grey
To the warbling of the Australian  magpies i wake every day
In time and in distance the past far away
Though few in their lifetime see their dreams come true
I too had my own hopes and dreams to pursue
In hopes of times better like all i do live
But we must accept what life to us does give
With rhyming words i am one who loves for to play
And i add to my numbers of rhymes every day.
