Description
Dancing in the Sun
Every thing was so new
When I was one & two.
It was the world that I would fix
when I was only ten & six.
Oh, it was so much fun,
just to be twenty & one.
I find myself without a date,
Oh my gosh, I'm only thirty & eight.
Well, I'm still looking mighty fine.
Not bad for being fifty & nine.
I think I'll learn to ski.
Wee, I'm only sixty & three.
Now I am in the autumn of my years
and I have outlived most of my peers.
Many of my battles I have won,
I now know the best is yet to come.
And where will I be
when I'm ninety & three?
Not really sure, there's still more to do;
with this old life I'm just not quite through.
When it comes time to go to heaven's gate,
you can bet I won't be late.
St. Peter will call my name,
and ask me why I came.
Well Sir, I think my work is done,
and most assuredly I've had fun.
To heaven's gate I have come,
to claim my place in the bright sun.
Many a souls I did mend.
Many a people called me friend.
I did what I could every place I went,
and with each person some time I spent.
Now it's time for me to retire,
and travel to the stars way up higher.
These old bones of mine are worn,
and my life's mission has been properly borne.
It's time to take my place in heaven;
you see Sir, I'm one hundred and 'leven.
That's what to St. Peter I will say,
when it comes to the end of my day.
But there is no need to fret,
'cause this old life ain't over yet.
There's time yet for a lot more fun,
'cause I haven't finished dancing in the sun.

This is a single flame created in Apo 3D Hack and post worked in PSP. The ballerina was created in Poser. Some of the variations used in this flame are the linear, hemisphere, spherical, cylinder, scry, foci, and blur variations.
Thank you for stopping by to share a moment of time with me. I appreciate you viewing my art and leaving comments on my images. Each one is like a precious jewel that I will always treasure. I send a most heart felt thank you to those of you who have favored me as an artist or have favored one of my images. You make my world a little brighter and bring rainbows to my valley of life. What a wonderful gift to receive.
I wish you days of laughter and delight and moon lit nights to make your dreams take flight. Namaste.
