Daily Verse a short verse (almost) every day

Eleventh Year

I leave for new lands,
new hopes, new friends!
I leave in search of excitement
and adventure that never ends.

Having lived and loved
in this city of mine,
I’ve grown so much,
but it’s finally time.

My eleventh year ends soon,
and with it I too shall go
to the mountains of rock and honey dew
with lush green valleys below.

Westward and upward,
as the Sun I too shall rise.
This place has been like life to me
but it will not be my demise.
