Time

Time saps the strength of the strongest away
Youth with anyone only has a short stay
The strongest man in the town on his day
Not as muscular as he was his hair silver gray
Time that ages everyone has become his foe
He is not the man he was a few decades ago
When he was the strongest person in the town
And his fame transcended local renown
In his sixth decade he is sixty three
Obviously not the man he used to be
Few things in time ever does seem to last
All he has now are memories of the past
The town's strongest man is now in his physical prime
And he too will become a victim of time.
