Goodbye SD I'm going away

Boxes

I’m packing today, I’m going away.

Going where? Going to what?

Going from where? Going from what?

I’m still me, am I not?

Boxes of memories left behind, put on the tip.

Boxes of memories too sweet to leave.

Boxes of the past, boxes of now.

Boxes of this and boxes of that.

One for the dog and one for the cat.

Boxes of sounds, of laughter, of hopes and of tears.

Boxes of sunny days, boxes of winter showers,

Boxes of nights and boxes of days

and boxes of the ways we were.

Boxes, boxes with memories that spill out of them.

I’m packing those boxes today, I’m going away.

I’m still me, am I not?


See you on Spanish Help I hope.

So well put, Sir Ian. Thanks for all you've done on SD. I hope Spanish Help works out for us. It would be nice if you, Ray, and Amber can resume your duties as mods on that site. However it works out just being together is the most important thing.
