alas my fate was predestined

My candle burns at both ends;
It will not last the night;
But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends-
It gives a lovely light!

Thanks Sheilagh. If you how fast I wrote it after seeing the three words, I would have to blush.
Happy you liked it.

laurie, thanks for stopping by and reading my work. Happy you liked it.
