I move with the tides, however they roll
Sweet times and hardships understood
Fighting the waves with true love in my soul
Assured that the end shall be good
I never regret when my life goes off course
I’ve faith I will find my way home
With God as my captain, I’m pushed by His force
I shall reach where I choose to roam.
Over the last year, I’ve seen sweet times and pain
The struggles, indeed, have been great
I’ve grown from the hardship; how, I can’t explain
But, I know my life is bound by fate
For I’ve also walked an incredible path
Where sunlight and bright flowers bloom
‘tis proof that from burden, a sweet aftermath
Is destined for those who make room.
I’ve risen from ashes and dreams gone awry
To seize newfound goals in my view
I’ve bounced back from days when I wanted to cry
To find beauty I never knew
As I travel onward, upon life’s high seas
Toward joys and God’s blessings, divine
I’ll vow to remember the past’s sacred breeze
That led to birthday, twenty-nine!

I should have lots of years left, and I suspect it is mountains and valleys all the way.
