Retracing our footsteps

A 13 hour drive
North
Through snow
The windshield wipers worked
This time
Your son
Drove
As the scenery
Flew by
I
Watched our lives
Pass before my eyes
I listened to your brother
Connect with his nephew
And heard you
We dined with your daughter
Your ex Brother
And sister-in-law
And toasted
You
Driving south
Waves of emotion
Crashed over me
As we drove
Past our house
Your work
All the places
We'd driven by
So
Many
Times
So this last time
You were with us again
And we made the round trip
For you
