42 months

As the days go by you remember
All of the struggles that got you to where you are
You take it all in
Wander the road up ahead
Look all around and you will see
The vision and the wisdom that has come
Open your arms to the sky
Spin around and discover your feelings
Hear the wind
Smell the dreams
Touch all your boundaries
Beyond sight
Take your flight
Discover new possibilities
You are free to send
This doesn't have to end
Apart of everything
Hold your head up high and sing
Let it ring
Let your heart be a peace
For today you can give in to your dreams
Make the most of the day
With nothing left behind
You can walk without the fear
Let your problems disappear
Sharing love
Your heart will light the way

Celebration of 42 months smoke free.....
Thank you, me

To Charles Kipp

Even if I knew nothing of you,

Those at your side would show me your heart.

Even if I had never met you,

Those from your path would change me for life.

Even if I never touched your gifts and your spark,

My heart would still ache from your passage last night.

To see such a spark carried by those all around,

Ignites my desire to see where it is found.

Your life has been tempered and gone through the fold,

From strength in your wisdom and stories you’ve told.

Beyond the fear,

Beyond the unknowns,

Sits the oneness that exists in the hearts of us all.

I thank you for being,

I thank you for sharing your part,

Blessings and guidance,

In the journey to start.

Walk on in the sacred,

Continue with ease,

Free from your burdens,

Beyond all that we see.

Enter with your wisdom,

With your love,

Knowing more,

Guiding light,

You live in our hearts.

Safe journey,

Pleasant nights.
