Graceful Degradation

Mind and body; housing, menage;

studies, directions, teachings, and guides.

All well planned, and all taken care of.

Finances drafted for when it is time;

truly independent but staying as one.

All still running, towards the goal.

You'll have the lantern,

my dear three of you:

I will be gone.
