Just Walk Away

From distance far she came; From California she drove; Notwithstanding the pain. About halfway here, she stopped in South Dakota, picking up a family of special friends. Together they braved the stormy weather; wind, rain, big rigs and low visibility, driving till they nearly dropped. It was to see us, they came. with a love so deep and pure. We felt so honored and respected. Oh, what a reunion there was when they arrived with so much love to give. Like a fresh feel of heaven on earth. What more can mortal ones ask? Smiles and laughter, prayers and shares. Fun and games, abundance of foods. Coffee and water; no wine or other spirits; But songs in hearts so filled with The Holy Spirit. We spent some 60 plus blissful hours together. Time moves rapidly when you are having fun. Saying "Hi" is always better that saying goodbye. We took pictures, kissed and hugged tightly. Watery eyes were spotted throughout our time together; and special tears fell and flowed as they slowly walked to the car. Coming is always sweet; leaving, not so much. What more can you say when there is no other way? When emotions are stretched to the max and you cannot stay? What more can you do? I guess, as best you can, with a heart filled with tears, 'You just walk away'.
