Farewell
Goodbye, two thousand twenty-three
The most part, you were good to me
Though you gave us quite a bad start
Through son’s bad health of brain and heart
But that smoothed out, he’s doing fine
His sister helped him through that time
For months Sis and I planned our trip
Like a block of ice, we did chip
Much to plan for France and U.K
We did bit by bit every day
But I renewed my passport late
Received two days before the date
Told Sis, May the fourth be with you
And prayed that God would see us through
We toured Paris, Normandy, and
London, Wales and all of Ireland
In July, I went to Peru,
A mission trip with much to do
Hot, poor and crowded, kids with smiles
Held sloth, parrot and some reptiles
In August, Shannon reunion
In Lake Geneva, Wisconsin
Living it up at a resort
Had lots of fun is my report
Our travels weren’t through for the year
Went to retreat with friends so dear
You ended with daughter and son
In Arizona for some fun
In between times that I did roam
I took care of our yard and home.
I wrote, spoke and did caregiving
Taught homeschoolers nature living
Goodbye, two thousand twenty-three
The most part, you were good to me
