At the Airport

I have always loved airports

and train stations of all sorts

they are places where

you can witness true love

People holding signs

balloons and teddy bears

welcome home

and happy tears

Dogs going crazy

kids screaming: Daddy!!

Hugs and kisses

Goodbye – I miss you already

Absence makes the heart grow fonder

when you love from afar

love also seems to grow

and it always makes me wonder

why do we need distance

to learn to know:

How much we love, how much we care

for that certain someone that isn’t there

One day they will be gone forever

do not wait for that day

love as much as you can whenever

and pray for your love to stay

Don’t take time for granted

In your mind you must always bear

the seed of love that you planted

will only grow with love and care
