A Farewell At The End Of The Road

A story at the End of The Road

 

Farewell, me ol' mate....me handsome rover

The night has grown darker

Long ago me youth was torn in tatters

Things i've done not ter flatter

 

I can not sing comforting ballads no more.

Nor can sons o' God whose songs are beautifully sung as o' yore.

Thus, ne'er ye seek fer enjoyment deeper than heart.

For i am ter find me way ter part

 

Nor are ye goin' back

As chances of glancin' we lack

At simple pleasures in our lives

Fer many have been torn by strives

 

A memory at the end of the road

 

We were born as the fair ones o' our generation.

Tales among our nations.

We are just another page o' their lives

Our role was ter overcome their fear so rife.

 

No angels could abet

No devils could mislead

 

A Memoir at the end of the road...
