From Goodbyes To Hellos
How many goodbyes are in a lifetime?
Saying goodbye
to go to school
to go to work
to travel separately away
to end a visit that lags until the next time.
Who knows or recognizes that last final goodbye?
Knowing
can be a gift or an obligation
allowing final preparations
to say what needs and may otherwise
not be said.
Would that be the blessing
in believing, trusting,
in having faith
that we would me again
without anymore goodbyes.
Looking forward then
to that last and final
Hello.
