There Goes Another Year

There Goes Another Year     Well the summer is gone again Winter is nearly here The days are getting shorter Nights are cold and clear     The trees are all but bare Fireplace snaps and crackles There's a crispness in the air Lawn mower put away Snow blower now at the ready As I make the best of each and every day     It's the best time of the year So some people say Winter grows ever so near Snow birds soon will play     Sitting by the fire With a glass of red wine in hand Roast some fresh chestnuts Now that would sure be grand     The fourth of November Personal anniversary that's no doubt I take the time to remember Today the house seems empty as I move about     I will spend another winter alone In this big house of mine Sometimes I feel old Yes old before my time     By Ray Hamilton © Copyright 11 / 2008 All rights Reserved   Please visit me at The Poet's Nest

Awwwww sweetie, sure wish your Musketeers lived closer in miles. A nice evening by your fire, a glass of wine and wonderful laughter and great friendship, would make us all feel better. We may all have to turn into real estate agents and fine you a small, cozy, little house where new memories can be born.

I am sorry that I have not dropped in. Just been the normal crazies here and a little down myself.

Take good care my friend Ray.

Hugs,
Lesa
