Too Busy

 Too Busy

 

To say I’m old is true today

but you will never hear me say.
I have done all that I can do

 each day I attempt something new.

I won’t sit back and vegetate

 because I still appreciate.

There are still things I have not tried

 some wishes still unsatisfied.

I will not live vicariously

 a life that’s centred on T.V.

 I will not take to my arm chair.

 I haven’t got the time to spare.

 I’m far too busy being me

still trying new things eagerly.
