A Farewell Blast

It's party time at our humble abode Preparing a farewell blast Saying goodbye to friends and neighbours Recalling the good times past It's gonna be happy and a little bit sad Made some very very close friends Sure that more than a few tears will flow Twas a joy living here to the end The real good stuff never lasts forever Gonna create some new good stuff Your life as they say is what you make it Good times we can't get enough Looking forward to an exciting new chapter Got my dearest Cathie to thank At this ripe old age of seventy-seven Still got some gas in the tank It's party time at our humble abode Preparing a farewell blast! ©Jack Ellison

I hope all goes well with your move my friend! You will never forget your good times you had there and your friends will always remain! Now you will get to create new good times and some new friends...that's always exciting!
