The Visit - 1-2007

Sitting in the airport to take a flight
Tossing a football to and fro
A man and a boy waiting to go.

Suddenly, the boy whispers, "I love you."
A single tear rolls down his small cheek.
Pale blue eyes gaze pleadingly at the man.
Who grasps the young boy in a fierce hug.

Clinging onto his last shred of composure.
With misty hazel eyes the man forces a smile
and utters in a husky voice to the child,

"Son, it's only three months til our next visit."
