Forty: Days & Nights

I can't believe it's here...
Hear the clock striking?
Forty times the candles flicker -
Forty times the hands swoop
Round the face - marking another
Year spent wondering,
"What's next? What's to come?"
Blessings abounded found in
God's promises of love in Him and
In him - nightly chats, prayers and
Funnies shared - can't wait to see
Him in Heaven - heavenly hugs
Tug at my heart strings for the
Distance that separates and grinds
My mind to halting to a screech
When I count down the days till
We embrace in real time not over
Fiber optics - kissing too - at the
Door where our hearts beat as one
Yet again - here, not in Nebraska.
