An year back I went on a travel,
A poetic path full of words gravel.
Some ideas to unfurl and unravel,
A desire to channel and thoughts ravel.
Never did I think an year will pass,
And I will so much affection amass,
Friends and family’s compliments will surpass,
All expectations of an amateur lass.
My thanks can never fully surmise or suffice,
Or pay you back at any price,
For so much love and kindness sent via varied device,
You have been super generous and nice.
My small word of gratitude,
Is felt with the widest latitude.
And  a very humble and heartfelt attitude,
Thanks for indulging my lay aptitude!
