Farewell ‘til Then

Faith,

 

Such a simple word,

 

It can change people,

 

And even the world.

 

     But you,

 

     You are different,

 

     You took this meaning,

 

     To be God’s Agent.

 

Now,

 

You begin your journey,

 

To spread the faith,

 

To children overseas.

 

          I am blessed,

 

          To know you,

 

          Loving and caring,

 

          And always know what to do.

 

With God’s guidance,

 

I know you’ll be safe,

 

And next thing you know it,

 

It will be already May.

 

               And I’ll be here waiting,

 

               Praying for everything to go well,

 

               And I’ll be ready,

 

               For the stories you’ll tell.

 

But for now Goodbye,

 

Until we meet again,

 

I’ll miss you,

 

My friend.
