Life is But a Dream

 

After the usual boyhood dreams


of heroic schemes, I had no idea


what I would seek, and who I


would eventually turn out to be.


75 was an age I never expected


to be. Well, folks here I am, and


to this day, I am still amazed I


made it this far. Now mind you,


the stars and many turtles have


greater longevity than I, but


you see their lifetime is well


programmed from the “get-go.”


We do have science and biology


in common, however. We are


born into existence, and inevi-


tably pass away. At least I got


to play Roy Rogers, Zorro and


Davy Crockett along the way.


Lucky guy am I. What’s life all


about without dreams anyway?
