No Guarantee

The past just a memory of the what used to be
And into the future is there one who can see?
The now is what matter as the wise one did say
And at the stroke of midnight the past will be today
Yesterday he had great dreams of the years ahead
But as a result of a car accident this morning he is now of the dead
And Kate  in her nineties healthy and looking well
With so many stories of her long life to tell
As is said of life there is no guarantee
The young man in his early twenties has been outlived by the woman of  ninety three
As the granddad did say to his granddaughter and grandson
Tomorrow will dawn but not for everyone
Feel grateful for every day you wake to see
On how long you will live there is no guarantee.
