10 years old 
Walking down the gravel road 
Blowing dandelion dreams into the air
My roots firmly planted in my hometown. 

20 years old 
Missing a special little girl and family
2300 miles from that hometown 
Learning the lessons of early adulthood. 

30 years old
Starting my life over and finding new dreams 
1500 miles from that hometown 
Finding the love of my life 

40 years old
My special girl gives me another girl to love
1500 miles from that hometown 
Wondering what the second half of life will bring. 

50 years old
Coming out the other side of cancer 
1500 miles from that hometown 
Finding a new inner peace. 

60 years old 
Heart broken from losing loved ones 
1500 hundred miles from that hometown
The gift of early retirement and the sudden wealth of time. 

Each decade has given me lessons to learn 
People to love and keep close
Others to move on from 
That miles do not exist between hearts.
