Lemon Tree
Good things were happening beyond what she could see
Things were very different, as they should be
You can feel it because this time it was all about me
The root of every problem, I created
Usually beginning with the boys I have dated
All in the hopes of endless romance and true love
Forever with the soul mate sent from above
Ha! Eye roll and belly laughter...
There would be none of that in this next chapter:
Jobs rewards, allowing her a moment to boast
Texts rolling in from those she misses the most
And a Holiday card arriving... that struck a chord in her heart
A reminder this would be the first Christmas 12 states apart
Yet, in the distance the sight of a lemon tree untouched by snow
A sign some things require sunshine in order to fully grow!
