I'm still here

boxes, boxes
so many boxes
we have accumulated much
in the 12 years in this house

I am sifting and sorting
as I pack
only saving that 
which is most dear

and then there's the paperwork
the running around 
to complete records
and medical exams
and criminal checks
and more vaccines

so my words
have indeed been few
and I miss this space
but I'm here
looking for a moment 
to be still
and exhale words

And I sure am excited for you re: getting ready to move back to Africa and do your God-job there again. Sure would love to meet you there, but, oh, well... can't do it all. Bless you.
