Building Blocks

Years are the structure,
The building blocks of life.
In them we find,
The breath that beareth strife.

We taketh what time,
And worketh in the hours.
Doing things that magnify,
And giveth to us powers.

It makes for a full life,
With each one to bless.
That we might achieve,
And know happiness.

For years give desires,
And oft in their length.
We re-inforce the mind,
And groweth in strength.

Experience is a builder,
That has a proven plan.
It adds much to the user,
And it buildeth up the man.
