From a soft, sweet desert breeze To a tropical hurricane squall Changes blew across my year Both monumental and small No casual tossing out of old To replace with shiny new With all these memories behind us How could I replace friends such as you? To rearrange my life it took A thousand miles and many tears Facing forward I saw uncharted future Looking back, the fullness of years With fingertips I held onto you And all the blessings given to me But with my other hand I reached out To seek a new life’s destiny I turn around and see the turmoil Engulfing my yesterday friends Feeling helpless to give comfort As change and tumult descends The past and future meld as one Holding pain and joy and sorrow Grief of death and joy of birth Our yesterday and tomorrow The gentle tropical breezes blow Whispering of a winter shower Smiling, I know I’ll see you again If it’s within my power |

Wow what a year you had, and beautifully composed to tell the tale. The worst part was not in getting where you were going was it, but instead getting there and experiencing more rain than I bet you saw in all your time in the desert? Quite a year, and quite an accomplishment as well. |
