By: Cedric McClester Life’s a marathon It’s never been a sprint But time goes by so fast You’ll wonder where it went So make the most of it Would be my comment And when the clock runs out You can die content Life’s a marathon It’s never been a dash You must conserve energy If you want to last It’s not won by the swiftest Because they run real fast Is it won by the wisest You might want to ask Life’s a marathon So to stay in the running More than being fast You’ll have to be cunning If you want to last And be deemed as stunning Once the dye is cast Your victory is coming Life’s a marathon Not a simple race If you want to win You’ll have to keep pace And time yourself To stay in the chase In order to cross the line And come in first place Cedric McClester, Copyright 2016.
