There is a need
for this to end
although next year
I know     that it will come again
but hopefully,     until then
circumstance will have changed
because life moves on
and rearranges
where we go
and what we do;

continually growing,
ever moving
onward.

The wheels are turning
in my head;

at this time next year
I wonder where this life
will have led

and which path it will be
that I have taken

and if I will have chosen
right, or wrong.
Or will I again
have been mistaken?

Will mankind, 'til then
have changed its tune
or will it continue on
this wasteful road to doom?

I may seem to have
a bah  hum  bug attitude
but this years been hard

that's just the plain truth,

the good news is
that this years almost gone
and there is always tomorrow
for moving on....

seek the flame within yourself
and let your soul be cleansed by
the fire of love.  Axel Ekenstierna

Donna...you sure have had some hard times this year, but you've managed to take care of yourself and your daughter throughout those times.  I have a feeling that next year will be filled with things that make you smile.  Lots of times I'm right!     Merry Christmas to you!

Hugs to you, Donna, for well do I understand
the wish for this year to end
and yet? it seems destined to end on a happier note than I had imagined, thanks to the amazing kindness of a silent generous gift giver. ~sigh~ if I write anymore than this, I shall start to cry.

(PS, betcha you were singing Oh, Donna....)

omg no, I wasnt Kacy, but once upon a time I was at a private party and someone clued the band that was playing in on my presence so I was serenaded..
and then, if that wasnt bad enough, I saw them again months later at a local VFW performing and when they realized I was there they did it again..
acupello (? spelling...) style....

I was so embarassed.
