Had good times last night
Celebrating a birthday
Out at Cemestos
Family is great
Even if blood’s not involved
Tight bonds of friendship
Her presence was felt
Celebrating alongside
Where she’s always been
Think of yesteryear
When Bos spoke of bonds and love
And I saw Beauty
Bos is pretty cool
And he’s a hella speaker
Glad he did the job
Watched the video
Archaic, magnetic tape
Artifacts from then
—
Strange how things happen
Wedding renewal last year
A whole different age
I’m back at the farm
Baptize Bonnaroo Baby
Didn’t plan to come
But its just a day
And the place is beautiful
And good company
BJ smiles down
At her happy baby boys
And her sweet husband
Who’s smiling too
Its neat how the heart has room
To have love, again
It amazes me
How my love for her’s unchanged
While the new love grows
—
It should be harder
Like back in February
But I won’t complain.

Last year brought so much,
So many things went awry.
Everything was changed.
In another world
Nodbob and I are alone,
You are broken down.
But look at it now
New girlfriend, happy marriage
And a newfound love…
All in one small year.
Kinda makes me excited
For what life can bring

And here at the farm,
We will always remember
October fourteenth.
And we will enjoy
relilving the memories
of a renewal.
Not being aware
it was also a farewell.
We had a great joy.
We now celebrate
All the changes life can bring
We have renewal.

As love is given
the heart grows without bound’ries
making room for more.

everyone smiles now
as love overcomes all pain
joy to you my friend

I have a new fish
and decided to name him Maple
What a great present
Maple, like Syrup
Maple, the tree up the road
BJ’s fall favorite
Well, at least I think
that tree is a Maple…but
heck, I might be wrong

Sifting through a few
old family photographs,
we looked so young then.
We were younger then,
but I don’t feel older now–
still turning corners.
***
That October day
we dressed up like Autumn trees-
beautiful colors.
Bonds and love carry
us into our commitments
to all our loved ones.
We cannot know where
our commitments will lead us–
Leaves in a windfall.
