As the Old Year Ebbs, Then Dies
As The Old Year Ebbs, Then Dies
by Rick Rucker
As the Old Year ebbs, then Dies,
I can't believe how fast time flies!
It seems like only yesterday,
That high school came, then passed away.
Then college, too, passed in a minute,
Sometimes, I feel like I'm still in it.
You came too, then you left,
Leaving me, of Love, bereft.
I know, if You can see,
That You are very glad for me!
I have welcomed to my Life,
The One that says she'll be my Wife,
So We can share our Love and Pain,
And We can both live again!
I know You want the Best for me,
And I hope that you can see
That, although she's not like You,
I can also love her True!
From your place in Heaven, looking down,
You'll see I no longer wear a Frown!
I am happy, so is She,
Both ecstatic, actually,
You and I will talk, from time to time,
Though mostly through my rhyme,
So, in closing, let me say,
May we both have another Blessed Day!
