Analysis of String of Life
Joseph m Novo 1951 (Watsonville Ca)
We all have some
Long and short
Depending on the person
Young or old it does not matter
It is the string of life
Some of us have knots
Others do not
To detangle these will not be easy
Big knots are harder to undo
Little knots may be just as much
Some strings are easy to see
Short strings are hidden
Deep inside the heart and soul
Tied all together with
The string of life
Which holds everything tight
Untie those knots
As best as you can
Ask for help when needed
The tie that binds
It is the most important
For family and friends
To help tie it all together
Because love holds us all
No matter how long or short
The string of life is for anyone
