Poetic Dan

Before 40 I\'m building a starship

Some songs remind us where we need to go
Others will remind us what we already know

 

I\'m only two years away but there\'s something I\'d like to acknowledge

 

I\'ve heard Life begins at 40
Before that it was just a test run

 

Many bridges I have broken
Some can never be rebuilt

 

Although islands do not drift
The connections just not quick

 

But until we rise above
Using starship out of love

 

The ocean is our journey
Emotional waves never stop

 

So now I\'m starting to build, one last ship
With nearly 38 years worth of blueprints

 

On the very first page I give thanks in my mothers name
For I held a grudge against her for far too long

 

The best she could do, brought up the best that\'s in me
For me to be truly proud of myself, It must be with all I\'ve seen

 

So I\'m thanking her for giving me life and the opportunity to grow
I could not be more happier with every person I\'ve known

 

If it now takes the rest of my days
Assembling this new communicational way

 

I\'d be wonderfully content with knowing I\'m not full of hate

 

If I do somehow finish anytime soon, I\'ll bring Pickle Rick heading to button moon!
