Moving............

Heading north
time to leave this place behind
our memories are rich
no words can define
we're not saying goodbye
because it isn't the end
just saying hello
to unknown friends
our roots are buried deep
within this ground
so returning here
i'm sure we'll be found
but for now we seek
the sun and the beach
and connect with family
who've been out of reach
a new addition
a grandson too
made things easier
'twas our point of view
we packed our tunes
and our instruments too
squeezed the kids in
to experience something new
headed to Qld
the sunshine state
to open our eyes
and seal our fate..........
