~ Tour De Life ~

Riding through life, on the thin bumpy road,
Sin and revenge make a quite heavy load.

Disease flattens tires, chains snap over greed,
Patience and kindness are all you should need.

Take out your money and toss it aside,
Life without greed makes an easier ride.

Throw out your worries and pains from your past,
The less woes you suffer the longer you'll last.

Don't even bother with things that you want,
Without them the ghost of temptation can't haunt.

Just ride around things like drugs and divorce,
Those who don't cheat ride the easier course.

Stop crying for losses and those who are dead,
Keep your head in the present and future ahead.
