Where Do We Go From Here
We have seen every national forest in all fifty states
Waterfalls in six and mountains in five
We backpacked through Europe in the sixties
When it was considered safe
We have bungee jumped, and been to Iron Man
We have lived in a commune and a nudist colony.
We have been part of a spiritualist revival.
We have made our own soap, and our own way.
We have been musicians, singers, and songwriters.
We have had able bodies, and lively limbs.
We have danced our way out of danger.
We are getting older now.
Our knees need replaced.
Our teeth are broken.
Our minds are fuzzy.
Where do we go from here?
