Compared To Many Others

Though a few career advancement opportunities i blew
Compared to many others my troubles seem few
My health is good though my head balding and gray
And i enjoy a laugh or two a day
I can't complain a good life i have had
I might have been born in Kabul or Baghdad
Or in Palestine in a war ravaged town
Where gun men on the streets drive up and down
Compared to many others I'm a lucky man
I'm in my sixty first year of life not a bad span
So many younger than me to the reaper gone
I'm reasonably happy and healthy and i am living on
There are many doing it far tougher than me
I am not a Homeless, Stateless refugee.
