I've never been a runner -
though i've walked the mile
with others younger than me;
So, i've not been able to set the pace
or keep up with the runners -
much as i would like to, sometimes,
Anyway i'll try my best to keep pace-
for i would not want to be left behind
no, not this time, coz time is running out on us:
we have reached our last and final quarter:
the fourth and deciding quarter of our life -
with eight already dropped out of line...
the rest of us will plough on in their memory -
till we reach the finishing line,
holding each other's hand -
giving each other support,
to make it through that last quarter ...
