I have many questions
Tons of regrets
Talk shows saying one thing
All useless suggestions

I always thought there was time
Time to climb the mountain
Time to travel the world
Too commit the perfect crime

"Do not regret what you did;
but what you didn't try."
Wise words from my mom;
past on to me as a kid

Her words are gospel
Forever true
But she forgot to say
Try all when youthful

Now at 50 I understand
Why they invented valcro;
The clapper;
and the elastic waistband
