Years End

Its a fitting end to a trouble filled year Not being near those I love so dear Not with my daughters or with my family Or with my friends I hold so dearly I miss the smiles I see on their faces And taking them to such wonderful places Just riding around looking at lights They seem to love such beautiful sights I stand strong and behind my decisions We all learn from lifes little lessons A year like this I've not known before This year cut deeply, all the way to my core
