As my river of life nears the ocean
I welcome the pull of the tide
no more ebbing and flowing regardless
no more helloes or sad goodbyes.
The journey once made so exciting
so much beauty and wonder I've seen
over waterfalls, through rapids and soft streams
too lagoons as blue as could be.
I felt of the life spawned within me
nurtured all… through storms and high seas
but the force of the storms born within me
tore them… so far from me.
So I welcome the pull of the ocean
and look forward to seeing old friends
my journey through life so amazing…
and so glad that this is not… the end!
