New Chapter

Keys in my hand, Painting to be done, My new chapter has definitely begun, Gardening work, elbow grease, Sitting amidst it all with a grin, Filling leaves to the top in my new bin, You said I needed you, You said it can't be done, You said I will miss the money, You said I shouldn't run, I did it and I've done it on my own, I am happy and I've really grown, Challenges for sure but facing them as me, Life is so beautiful and I can now see, Walking from you without anything, Was exactly the right thing to do, I can sleep at night, This is so me alright, Naming my little rental home, Seeing my faith has grown, Starting from scratch although I am old, Figuring the heating, initially cold, Little steps making a big change, Making new friends of a full range, Church to soon start, Pushing my own shopping cart, Happiness is deep within, Living my best life is now to begin.
