Last Words

Out with the old
in with the new,
I hope they mean the year
and not me and you.

I know I am old and
what is left is gray,
And long ago
I saw my best day.

Yet, for a while longer
I hope to be around,
While standing upright
on top of the ground.

When it comes time to be my last day
this is what I want my last words to say:
I couldn’t lead or follow
so I got the heck out of the way.
