When I first came into this world
I was just a little girl.
Mommy would dress me up so nice
and my head was full of curls.
—
To me it seemed to take so long
before it was time for school.
My mommy said the time went fast
and that school would be so cool.
—
I studied hard and got good grades.
Now it’s time to graduate.
It’s time now for me to marry
the nice young man that I date.
—
We got jobs after we married.
It was time to have a child.
It’s time for us to settle down.
No more parties being wild.
—
I found out mommy died today.
She was happy till the last.
As I look back on my whole life
it seems to have been so fast.
—
Now I’m old, not feeling well.
Maybe soon I’ll be gone too.
I have been happy with my life
and will be sad when it is through.
—
Today’s the day I passed away.
I hope that my life had worth.
I guess I’ll do it all again
when it’s time for my new rebirth.
