Birthdays
have gone
Pieces
carry on
Worries
are left to mend
Mysteries
lie around the bend
As
another year goes by
Hellos,
goodbyes
We’ll
manage to try
Still
sorting the rearranged
Smiles
remain with much to gain
As
another year goes by
Steps we’ve taken
Some
worth makin’
Awakening
from sleep,
The
senses can be buried deep
As
another year goes by
The
spits and spats
And
fancy that’s
Send
the stoic into fear
All
managing to survive the year
As
another year goes by
The
snow, the spring
A lazy
day swing
A
breeze and a grin
We’ll
treasure and recall when
As
another year goes by
Bounds
and leaps
Intentions
we keep
We’ve
stumbled down roads
We’ve
plowed and we’ve sowed
As
another year goes by
We’ve
danced and played
Have
tried to obey
We’ve
lost and learned
Were
rewarded and burned
As
another year goes by
We’ve
grown and aged
We’ve
turned the page
May
we hope to find
Much
peace to our minds
As
another year goes by
