It is time
the mountains of snow
It is time
little kids’ dramas
to Up Root
to say goodbye
to the Polar Vortex
the mountains of snow
black ice drama
lakes and parks we know
to gather all around
our bittersweet memories
of walk from the hospital
from obscure surgery
or with our bundle of joy
It is time
to keep it all alive
joys at the museums
applause of the theatres
little kids’ dramas
broadways and concerts
It is time
to pack up
all of the memories
bottle up all the tears
carefully carry them along
look ahead sans
fear
It is time
to Up Root
our warm, humble nest
put the memories in boxes
nestle them in our hearts
and Re-Root in
Texas.
It is just a matter of time…
and friendships extend beyond time.
