Still Life after 50 years

"Got my eyes, got my nose, got my fingers, got my toes, I got life!" On the eve of celebrating a living milestone I pause to tell the world that it is so.I have come to witness and share five eventful decades of rich, dense, momentous life on earth. Thankful am I to be able to do so with family, friends, and a creative mind.

All that's come before me
to mold me into a man
I celebrate and recognise
as the precursor of my plan
Joyousness abides within me
relishing the time now at hand
What happens next is of my choosing
if it is to be done I can
The open door beckons ahead of me
I've passed through the burning sands
The future I know not the outcome
yet I'm stirred and ready to make my demands
