One Score and Two

This year Lisa had her birthday while we visited the Truk Islands. Her favorite childhood place to go when we lived there was an island called "AchAch". So spending her birthday weekend there was especially meaningful! What a special birthday gift from God!

While I'm not anywhere near the poet that Lisa is, I couldn't resist trying my hand at it and giving it to her on AchAch. Great memories!

I love you, Lisa!





One Score and Two
Dear Lisa, Today you turn twenty-two.
On AchAch, no less - a blessing to you!

Who could have guessed when you left here at ten,
At one-score and two, you'd be here again?

God opened each door to visit our friends
Because it's so clear we're nearing the end.

We've swatted mosquitoes, walked in the rain,
Visiting, praying for some soul to gain.

Enjoy the snorkeling, sunshine, and breeze,
Taking a break and enjoying some ease.

We'll soon leave the heat, humidity, too.
May God's blessings abound this year for you!
