Phillip Wood Coffey - All are Wet

In youth, "let’s just run and play,
We’ll rule every day.”

There are not ironclad rules
Pain and heartbreak - push it far away
With the fog and “Purple haze”


These old timers have absolutely no clue.
Bring it on for the young and strong.
Muddle throughout during the Middle Ages.
Pay the taxes, raise the kids, pay the doctors,
Insurance - don’t forget the cat - pay the vet.

Visit those aged - some very well, others
Clean them up for they are very wet.
Now creaking down to my soul
Somehow made it through the grime and crime.

Now lie me down six feet under for the eternal rest,
but wait all you dead in Christ, Arise at the
Sound of Gabriel’s horn to live in triumph
with Your Savior for evermore.
