Celebrating Fifty
Here we are another year gone by
But this time I have grown
Half a life time
Surrounded by all of you
Here we are me and all of you
Mean the world to me
I would not survived I had to strive
Just keep my head above water
Life is a beach you swim our drown
Here we are
Face to face celebrating
I am still standing even when
I was knocked to the ground
When my smile was turned into a frown
I was pulled up by faith lifted to higher place
Here we are
Thought I would not make it
Thought It would be in destines hands
Thought the cycle would not be broken
Few times spoken
Here we are
Looking at fifty more years to come
God willing
Putting the past to rest
Convincing my self of it
While still having flash backs
Regrets lingering in the air
Here we are
Wishes blown
Hugs and kisses
Just another year older
