The air is cool
 A chill has come over me too
Looks like its going to rain again,
 Yet the sun is trying to break through.
I smile as I hear
 My chimes blowing in the wind
I think back to yesterday,
 And the joy I felt at its glorious end.
I have been given many things
 Chances to do what others can only dream.
I have also dealt with harshness,
 And pain that loss of life could only bring.
I dare not wish to dredge
 Up the past
I only wish for happiness
 And friendships to last.
I promised myself
 To be the best person I can be
And to realize
 My strengths and abilities.
The winds of change
 And autumn has moved in.
It is now time
 To count the blessing I’ve been given.
