Come and read,
Remember it’s the season forStreetlight’s Brief,
Wrapping year twenty twenty-fourChanges seen,
The landscape flipped we had to growWatch our dream,
“Don’t Stop Me Now,” our video:
What a year,
So many memories to shareEmmaLeigh’s
End of chemo, her bio’s there.Dalton had,
A karaoke birthday tooNamed that tune,
Guessed songs without a single clue
Then, there’s Key,
She battled some adversityWe partied,
Her Transplant anniversaryHalloween,
The day her lungs turned one year oldIt will be,
A tale that we will all uphold
But before,
I close our brief and bid farewellThere was more,
