COLOURS OF LIFE

COLOURS OF LIFE
How strangely people
express their thoughts
Their opinions based on
what from life they got
Your age they fix
for things to get
Your age they fix for
things to go let
You can eat and breathe
and earn for them
But cannot dream of happiness
in your way to come
Sixty is old, be prepared
to be framed
But sixty is young
with their kids to play game
Sixty is old
get ready to die
How can you ever think of
ketchup and French fries
Sixty is old one should
take care of health
This health they need
to steady their wealth
Sixty is old to dress up
and fly
You are too old now
for new relations to tie
Sixty is old to have fun
with your friends
You were out till sixty,
what fashion what trends
You worked like a donkey
to make lives easy
Now you got to listen
to their words sleazy
I laugh at you all,
I laugh at you life
How many more colours
yet to see dear life.
