It Is Nearing




It is nearing the time for fireworks


It is nearing the click of glasses


It is nearing the midnight kiss


It is nearing the toasts of the new year


It is nearing the time for my eyes to grow heavy


It is nearing the next second in which I will continue to pray for my one and only daughter and for the emotional coping of our ten year old grandson who gratefully lies safely asleep in our home. We know not where she is, at the moment, and have no way of reaching her since her cell phone has been disconected. There is much more to this story, but for now it is enough to say -------
It is nearing the time to greater understand the value of living in the moment instead of fearing the future.
