your suitcase packed 
though it was still dawn 
our youngest was snoring 
when the rain starts to fall 
it was like heaven 
was crying 
weeping for me
I hold your hand 
you touched my cheeks 
I tried not to cry 
when the rain starts to fall 
it was like heaven 
was crying 
weeping for me 
we went downstairs 
after you kissed the kids 
your cab's here 
now it's a heavy downpour 
heaven was weeping
its soul breaking apart 
torn into million pieces
My husband is leaving on August 22 and will be working on a cruise ship for six months. This is going to be the first time we'll be apart. Our kids already felt sad and I know it's not going to be an easy journey for all of us...

may those six months fly by quickly so that you will be together again soon. ... then again, time does skip ahead rather fast at times...
lovely lines...
Very touching both the poem on Theodore, (I love pantoums) and the one called Departure.
