Christopher Came Home Today

Christopher Came Home Today

By Kira A. Moore

 

Christopher came home today,

though I did not see him.

Not yet they said,

Not yet.

 

I never got

to say “Hello.”

 

I saw Christopher today.

So handsome,

In dress blues,

hat in hand.

 

But I did not see his eyes,

his beautiful eyes,

as blue as the sky.

 

I got to say,

“Good bye.”
