Your Remaining Years

Wallace Dean LaBenne

Kindly use remaining years
before your next formation
Find reasons for any cheers
and give your life sensation

Wholly use remaining years
before your next transfixion
Find reasons for any cheers
and give your life conviction

Purely use remaining years
before your next narration
Find reasons for any cheers
and give your life gustation

Gently use remaining years
before your next transition
Find reasons for any cheers
and give your life ambition

Wisely use remaining years
before your next admission
Find reasons for any cheers
and give your life cognition

Gladly use remaining years
before your next dimension
Find reasons for any cheers
and give your life extension
