I asked myself this morning;
How lucky can I be
To be starting life all over
Somewhere far from Tennessee?
Now Tennessee is fine, you know
For rebel folks and such
But as to heat, the dirt, the crime
I won't miss those so much
What I've wanted all these years
Is a place at home called home
And that such place is just not here
It's the place where I come from
What matters most is not where I've gone
What I saw, or what I'll see
But the friends I've made, family I love
And the times that are yet to be
Fifi

Wow! I am really impressed - what an amazing poem! You are a woman of many talents - no doubt about that. So glad you are sharing them with others through this blog.
You certainly are embarking on a new phase of your life and we wish you all the best. Savor every moment.

I see you found a hotel. Hope you are sleeping like a baby.
So, you're a poet. . I didn't know it. . Your talents are too many to mention. . So, now that you've sold, that news is old. . so on with your original intention. . .to hit the road in SCargo. . love and laugh and ride. . .find you a place to call your own. . a place where you can hide. . .just remember us friends. . who are left behind. . to follow with this HP. . .just remember to let us know. . all the places you get to see.
(How corny is that??)Have a great life! By the way, the party boat is finished and ready to take out over the Labor Day holiday. Wish you were here.
Great poem, Feef! I am impressed. Also, I am very happy for you. CONGRATULATIONS!! Looking forward to seeing you more once you're back in the bosom of the East.
Wow- all of you are just great blogger friends! what a life. Piano Man never ceases to amaze Fifi with his myriad of talents. He had better watch out, Feef might show up for that Labor Day party boat ride.
And to everyone on the blog - you watch out too - The Feefmeister is on the loose. Hah Hah
We're waiting for Nita and Piano Man to give us their flight dates so we can book (no pun intended) at Bookbinders. Let's go!
I am so ready for a ride on the party boat!
Are there any railings to keep a bleary-eyed drunk from falling overboard? If not, then once I hit the water, should I be concerned about a possible shark attack?
Please post all dates and times for when the party boat embarks. I want to be in line early.
