BARNARDO
Your views of me are quite beyond the pale
You assume I lead a life of total rest
When my day to day existence is a tale
Of neverending drive and zest
I hardly have a second I can truly call my own
It seems that every thirty minutes another hour has flown
The older you become the more you recognize the fact
One has little time to meditate and even less to act
If you stagnate and semi-slumber
You shall never make your mark
No slacker has succeeded
Since the days of Noah's ark
I can't exceed my alotted span
No matter how I try
But I've quite enough to do
Until I die
So you see how important
And imperative
Significant and vital
Is each second that we live
