In my youth and young adulthood

I moved a lot

From city to city

From country to country

In the past 25 years

I’ve been living in Montreal

The blessed city of Montreal

But it doesn’t mean I haven’t moved 

Or that I haven’t traversed the stages of life

Or that I haven’t seen the internal sights of life

I have seen my children grow up and get married 

I haven’t conquered the challenges of life

I have seen the diversity of the world in my travels 

I have penned my thoughts

I’m still living in the same home 

But life has kept changing around me and within me
