What do I value?
You've asked of me.
My health is important,
I'm sure you'll agree.
The love of family
is not far behind.
Without them I'm nothing,
please bear that in mind.
Peace and serenity
is my third choice.
I've waited so long,
and now I rejoice.
I value old friends
I wish we could be tighter.
Though the distance is great,
the connection seems brighter.
New friendships abound
oh what a surprise.
So glad I found you,
So glad I found you,
hope there's never goodbyes.
But most of all,
I have to say.
I value myself,
'cause I'm finally okay.
It's been a long time coming,
I thought I'd never arrive.
I took a big hit,
worse than a swan dive.
I'm back with a vengeance
steeped in love of a good man.
Pen to paper with feeling
and a really great plan.
Wishing you valuable moments!
