One hundred five and still alive

Alert clear headed how she thrives

One wonders how she spends her days

While all that time has slipped away

December 1999

the clock stood still wouldn't cross the line

but blink your eye and here we go

the clock no longer running slow

Will we like she see hundredth year

Another 40 without fear

Or will we find that ev'ry day

That all our time has slipped away.
