Room 214

In a room without a view,

I spent a few nights with you.

We laughed, we prayed, and cried a little

Elaine and Kathy on the outer edges—

Dorothy and Barbara in the middle.

Two showers in the morning—two at night

At six a.m., two were bushy-tailed,

Two were bright.

We shared our hearts in those days,

And will always be

Bound to keep the secrets

Between you and me.

Nothing tangible held us together,

But the Spirit came,

And made us better.

Our devotions were sweet,

Our sentiments sincere.

Though miles and circumstance may part us,

In our hearts, we’ll always be near.

                                                                      In Christ,

                                                                     Kathy Highley
