Another year gone by Another candle on the cake A distant friend remembered A minute for memory's sake Time or distance haven't healed The pain I've managed to yield Since your departure hurt is all I feel I guess death is never an easy deal. Another year gone by Another card in the post A distant feeling lingers A minute for an absent host Time or distance will not seal This wound inside is far too real Since you departed hurt was all I felt I guess death was your hand to be dealt. Time to make a toast; To You we'll miss the most We simply cannot fake The pain left in your wake, The truth that our hearts ache And the fear that they may break A message for your ghost; Think of us on Heaven's coast. Time or distance haven't healed The pain we've managed to yield Since your departure, Fate's not ‘sposta steal What kind of fortune is death upon a wheel? Copyright © 2008-2017 KF

The Wheel Of Fortune
I found this old, dusty pack of Tarot Cards today that made me think it was A sign.   Time for another Personal reading.   The cards say they were made in Switzerland, but they're written in French with dainty photos of colorful French (or Swiss?) metaphysical past times. They were distributed by: U.S. GAMES SYSTEMS, Inc. 468 Park Ave South New York, N.Y. 10016 Copyright 1970. (Wow!  45 years ago!) I focused and shuffled the cards.  My first inquiry was the outcome of Moving back to Seattle, And, according to the Swiss Gypsy Who only wrote in French, My ultimate outcome if I moved back To the Emerald City Was the card: L'Amoureux, Aka The Lovers.   **** I then asked another inquiry about my Outcome if I stay in California, And my ultimate outcome was the card: La Roue de Fortune Aka The Wheel of Fortune. Cha-Ching! But, wait. So, basically it all comes down to my choosing between.... Love OR Riches....? THAT'S ******
