The focus is bright as day turns into dark, dark night.

This is a beginning
And a end
This is when we wonder
Where oh where
Have we been?
Seeing thru
The mist of opportunity
Both those exciting
And ones we may
Have missed.
This is a beginning
Don’t miss the opportunity
Make sure you enjoy it
All the way to
A happy the end.

The last page in a book
The last page in a life
Written
With a hand dipped in love.
Read with knowledge
Of a end
That lives on in a mind
Filled
With unconditional love.
Yes
It’s the last page in a book
And you’ll find another one
Knowing it too
Will be written
With unconditional love.

The winds of change are changing
The known is not here
We all believe in the future
We all want it to be right here.
The winds of change are changing
Bringing the future back to here
Everything we’re holding
Everything so oh so dear
Will soon be far, far in the rear.
The winds of change are changing
The present soon too, far in the rear
The future before us
Hold it close, hold it dear but
Never forget those we cherish
They’re now in the rear.

Slowly, softly the fog dissipates
Leaving beneath me
A breathtaking land of
Oh so much rare beauty.
In this grand, lovely land
Is a dream where I could exist
Bringing to my life a magic
I shouldn’t nor can resist.
Come join me there
In this wonderland I love
Come be part of a world where
All is filled with wondrous love.
