The Wheel

someone gets off another gets on
round and around the wheel spins
you can only hope that before you're gone
you've done enough good to cover your sins

each has a turn of writing their book
comedies and drama each a separate page
you can't venture forward to take a look
pray that your legacy isn't written in a cage

greet each day and everyone with a smile
never leave them with a bitter taste
for those special ones walk that extra mile
never let them shake their head and say what a waste

no way to know the destination when you begin
but the end of the line cannot be passed by
turn and throw your kisses to the wind
when the ticket taker winks and says goodbye
