Exploiting Life

Don't waste your time on play and fun,
if yourself you want to carry.
To wealth and fame you should make a run,
before you are to marry.

In younger days you have a chance to make your life succeed,
but if you wait there will come a day from work you shall retreat.

For precious time is gliding by in Winter, Spring and Fall,
in Summer time you should relax as time does bind us all.

Don’t sit and think and take a chance on things you can’t relate,
a narrow mind will only end behind an iron gate.

So look above,
but not too high,
not where the kings are sitting,
the higher the eye of heavens will rise, the closer it is to setting.

On stormy days avoid the wind when rules do not apply,
no mortal soul shall have it all,
for all are doomed to die.
