Inspired to write a poem? Sabrina was.

It’s hard to leave California,        

        And friends we’ve enjoyed all these years.

There’ll be lots of hugs and kisses,

        And maybe a few little tears.

The highway of our life has changed;

        We’re sure God’s map says, “Uruguay,”

That’s our final destination,

        With two short stops along the way.

First, we’ll drive to Colorado,

        We’ll see dunes and mountains snowy.

After five long weeks of study,

        We’ll pack our bags and get going.

When we’re done with Colorado

        And our missionary training,

We’ll be off to Costa Rica,

        Where it’s tropical and rainy.

A storm rolls in each afternoon,

        Though morning skies predicted clear.

Once in a while there’s an earthquake,

        -But we’re only there for a year.

We’ll grab our suitcases once more,

        Again, we will all say, “Goodbye.”

We’ll board a plane to Uruguay,

        To South America we’ll fly.   ~Sabrina :)
