Airplane
(4-12-99)
by David B. Rhaesa
 
You’re landing in Toronto
in a matter of minutes
It was hard to leave the
airport after dropping you off.
I almost went back to your gate
about five times
but
you know I’ll miss you
so there was no more to say

As your plane
touches down
in another country
my heart smiles
at the happiness you
bring -- from time to time -- to my life
