The Steps Can Be So Long….

I just came back from shopping;

I invested in more life. 

Bought beer and smoke for puffing, 

Now if I could just find a wife.

Then there'd be two to do the waiting 

And together we'd the water tread

As above the stars go whirling 

Through this night that never ends

Ever hoping as we're treading 

For Paradise our way to wend.
