The Visit Poem by Audrey Heller

When you told me, you were going
to visit, I was thrilled, as can be. I
didn't even realize, it was two years,
since you've seen me. I counted the
days, before your arrival and suddenly,
it came around. I drove to the air port
and waited for your plane, to touch
down. Both of us, looking forward to
this visit, as it was long overdue. And
when friends get together, there's
plenty of catching up, to do. We sat
and talked, all hours of the day.
Listening very intensley, to what each
other, had to say. It really was a
wonderful visit, the best I can recall.
And being together, with my best
friend, was the greatest gift, of all!
