Baja Aha!

In the winter of life Escape to waters azure Forget stress and strife Baja adventure’s a lure Friends from bygone years Brothers for sure Through pain and tears We helped each other endure At Big Daddy’s Bungalow A safe harbor of choice Reunion bestowed Old friends do rejoice A chance to reflect On paths we have tread Of the roads behind us And the few up ahead With more life behind us Than we have up ahead It makes us give thought And causes slight dread What will we finally leave Of substance and grace When from life we are cleaved? When we end the race? The family we grew, The friends we have made, The impacts not few Not the monies we’ve saved
