My changed financial situation meant that it was time to say
Goodbye to the Cabin which led to the following poem:
Cabin you’ve been good for me
You’ve helped me listen, you’ve helped me see
Things out there beyond the walls
Walls of yours and walls of mine
Walls that frame us in space and time
You were old and I was new
Together we saw each other through
Sunny days and long cold nights
Star filled skies and Northern Lights
The rainbows came and then the swan
Frequently I was awake at dawn
Eager to see what each day would bring
Thrilled to hear the little birds sing
I’ve really enjoyed my time with you
I laughed, I cried, I danced, I grew
I’ll always remember your loving embrace
Though another home may take your place
We’ll each go on to other people and things
Remembering each other whatever life brings.
