The years stack like a tower of books,
Each with its stories: lights shining,
Songs sung and music woven throughout:
“People writing songs that voices never shared,”
“Standing at the crossroads of the hill,”
“I see trees of green, red roses, too.”
“Two cats in the yard, life used to be so hard,”
“Looking for adventure in whatever comes our way,”
“I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold,”
“I’ll always remember you like a child.”
“Puff the magic dragon lived by the sea.”
“One pill makes you larger, and one makes you small.”
“Sunshine came softly through my window today,”
“Happiness runs.”
Happy and Prosperous New Year!! May you be showered with good things this coming year.
This is my 500th Post!! Woo-hoo!!
Warmly, Brenda

I was having so much fun scribbling away, trying to match the lyrics to the writers of the words, but I accidentally scroll down too far and my eye caught the credits. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. Lol.

It was a harder thing to do than I expected. To pull out some magic and weave it together, but after all, it’s what I try to do all the time. LOL A big undertaking, but always fun. Happy New Year, Beth! I’ve appreciated your friendship this past year, and look forward to more ahead. Warmly, Brenda
