Getting Old

It sucks getting old. Yeah, but you have wisdom, don’t you know.

Perhaps but wisdom is the bane of my golden age, don’t you know.

Deep wrinkles | Old faces, Old man face, Old things

The Bane of My Golden Age

As the years fall fast

As I grow, mature and wise

As my mind reflects, and my eyes observe

As my sense and sensibilities crash

 

How I long for lost and youthful years

Of bygone ways and carefree days

Such wonderment and happiness,

And bewilderment with absent fears

 

Oh, youthful waste

That mantle of recklessness, unmitigated risk

 Such restlessness caught in my nature’s truth

Of a life so sweet, like a nectar’s taste

 

I yearn for a dear adrenalin rush

But fear and hide and cower thus

As excitement breeds its voice in me

I brush aside with knowledge, crushed

 

To live and breathe to life obsessed

To grasp at life’s best gift, dear youth

No worried fears or wayward tears

Just laughter at such foolishness

 

Oh, those youthful days not valued much

To a young and restless soul

Why oh why does my knowledge cry

To question such a foolish touch

 

My age brings knowledge and wisdom’s strength

And reflection’s pure judgmental fear

Yet shy from nature’s gift of a life to live

Without the worry and consequential lengths

 

Now, for wisdom’s pure and complex stage

It is wisdom’s curse for all who say:

“How youth is wasted on the young”

Perhaps, but wisdom is the bane of my golden age.

Doesn’t Matter because of the Liberal Family Compact the Liberals will govern forever. And why?:

(National Post).From the bureaucracy staffed by Liberal appointed deputy ministers, to the courts filled with Liberal appointed judges drawn from lawyers educated in Liberal dominated law schools, to the interest groups reliant on the government for funding, to the universities calibrating their research agendas to fit federal (Liberal) priorities, to a media that has been dominated by progressives, to private businesses looking for favourable regulation, every institution (in Canada) supports the party in one way or another.

As well as a central and eastern Canada elctorate who have:

Shit for Brains

And this new board game to boot. A hot seller in Central and Eastern Canada

Rare Earth. Rare Indeed. Their album “One World” came out in the early 1970s. It is a great album from an RnB band whose members are all white yet was on the Motown label. The band got caught up in the Jesus movement of 1971. They wrote this song which is both spiritual in its nature but a great rock song in its delivery. “Underneath God’s Light” as every one of us are:


 

July 1st – Canada Day

“Canada Day”

Hip hip hooray it is Canada Day

In our home and our native land

Hip hip hooray it’s a day to be gay

From a government who says that we can

Hip hip hooray it is Canada’s Day

As our leaderless leaders would cry

Hip hip hooray it is Canada Day

Forget the graft, and the cheats and the lies

Hip hip hooray it is Canada Day

With righteousness the bureaucrats hide

Hip hip hooray it’s our national day

Let’s undermine our Veteran’s pride

Hip hip hooray, it’s the Canadian way

To lose sight of a national dream

Hip hip hooray on this Canada Day

To be mired in our regional screams

So sad to say on this Canada Day

To keep integrity and values at bay

So sad to say on this Canadian day

That my country is lost in its way
