Too Busy

My body may age

but my mind will stay young.

I`ve much left to do,

many songs to be sung.

Many roads to be traveled,

much love to express,

Many souls that need aid,

who are now in distress.

I will do what i can

to help brighten your day,

I will spread cheer and love

as i pass your way.

The world is my oyster,

to have and to hold,

Why, I`m really too busy

to ever grow old.
