The Sweetness of Time

[Doug's Shack]

Tick-tock, the clock spins, each moment a gift unwrapping in time,
Gray hairs and laugh lines, my story's just beginning in time.

Some say youth flees, but I find life growing sweeter,
Each day a new page, my curiosity winning in time.

The world opens wide, I'm loving this ride,
Fresh wonders unfold, innovations spinning in time.

New inventions arise, I'm front-row to creation,
There's so much to learn, knowledge ever deepening in time.

They claim the best's past, but I see marvels ahead,
The future's bright mystery, its promise still gleaming in time.

Wisdom earned through years lived, grateful for life's gifts,
I'm writing my history, its chapters still beaming in time.

The view from here's fine, Doug, the journey's just right,
Getting older leaves me wanting more, my spirit grinning in time.
