We Age Rather Quickly

We age rather quickly past our physical prime
And eventually we all do run out of time
And whether we are buried or cremated and our ashes spread from an urn
We belong to Mother Earth and to her we return
On the ladder of material success you may have climbed far
And of you many may say of how marvellous you are
But time on your life will have the last say
And each day you live one nearer to your last day
The ageing of today were young years ago
Time that ages all life has become their foe
Like all other life forms us humans are mortals why otherwise pretend
And each day we live one nearer to our end
Live every day as if it is your last and one day you will be proven right
For you too will die as sure as day follows night.
