I'm walking on the clouds and looking down below,
I'm travelling backwards into time and all it has to show.
*
Reliving happy moments and seeing many the smiling face,
I hear all the loving words in memories that I chase!
*
No need to look for trouble or for days that there was rain...
Cause these clouds that I'm on top of, carry absolutely no pain.
*
I see all the students that touched my life in their quest to learn,
Glad to be of service, an honor to be a part of a title they did earn.
*
I see all the places that I went and travelled with my 20+ year spouse;
I see the works our hands did and how together, we built our house.
*
I see dancing with all my friends, how we partied and we laughed
So glad to feel that young again, but the alcohol we did guaff!
*
Spanning the years with my children from teenaged to the toddlers,
Oh, how I loved them and so happy to be their "modeler."
*
I see an older sister...wait a minute...that's got to be me!
There's a smart little brother and a little sis playing Barbie.
*
There're my parents, and my grands, my uncles and my aunts,
I see the perfect family gathered, the best that God could grant!
*
Thank you for coming along, upon this floating ride...
Life is short, love deep and hard, and let joy be your guide!
