Yearly Visit Poem by Dechen Doma Sherpa

Another year is coming to its end,
Another anniversary for our yearly reunion
Another week filled with love, vows, plans and teary depart
Another year testing our faith, loyalty, courage and living apart

Many question about the trust that saves our souls
Many wonder at our patience that keeps us alive
Many doubt about our future while we make plans
Many whisper in good and vice and we just smile

Someday we won't have to take different routes
Someday we will hold each other and with a kiss seal our union
Someday we are going to be home your and mine alone
Someday when the war is over we will have what we are waiting for.
