As surely as day follows night
Summer follows Spring
Harvest time follows seed time
I will reap what I have sown
It is a law of the Universe
I knew the future will be bright
And many joys it will bring
But did not expect many rhymes
Away I thought they had being blown
For computers had taught me to be terse
As with programs and systems I became nestled
So, in the end it all works out right
Rejoicings and celebrations will be King
With singing, dancing and many mimes
Behold, the babies have become so grown
That the decline of the past they have reversed
For with the forces of retardation they successfully battled.
To overcome the odds against one, you must fight
For when you do, loudly will your success ring
And you could go sing along and loud in a pantomime
Felicitate yourself, though you have to on your own
In joy yourself, you should immerse
The forces against you have been thoroughly rattled.
To advance in life's journey, we need guiding lights
Greater heights can be attained as we rise on Eagles' wings
Though we may no longer be in our prime
We can still have faith to journey into the unknown
Future achievements may we rehearse
Till they become real, and by them we are pleasantly startled.
