THE BALLAD OF THE MAN WHO NEVER WAS

There once was a man who began so I'm told

Living life from the opposite end.

You see he started out full of cares and very old

And proceeded to get younger my friend.

He was burdened with a life full of grief and strife,

Knowing too much to be lnown.

At the pinnacle of success in his life

He began to work his way down.

When he at last reached middle management,

He got a wife and kids fully grown

Lost his house and began paying rent.

The kids left, leaving theirs,

So he raised them as his own

Joined the PTA and took part in Science Fairs.

In the town he became quite well known

As quite a party guy, just a kid at heart.

I really don't know why, perhaps it is an art.

  1. Well not quite Robert Frost that's for sure.  It might would make good as some lyrics for a song but too bad John Denver isn't still alive to sing it.


  2. nobody knows.. that's really good
