The View From a Different Window

~and so it is with regret~

~the most important thing~

~sometimes I am reminded~

~in time for some new traditions~

~in my mother's eyes~

~a work in progress~

~and about the seasons~

~not one little bit~

~life's adventure and the kindness of strangers~

~to have had a very good life~

~lessons from the drought~

~as this day begins~

~and some of those people were soldiers~
