Early Stuff-II

This is a poem I also found on aforementioned Floppy. I wrote this in 2002 for a german LDS Friend that decided to serve a mission. She was sent to Salt Lake City, to serve on Temple Square. I was asked to write a poem for her going-away-party and so this was my present for her.

SALT LAKE CITY, TEMPLE SQUARE

SALT LAKE CITY, TEMPLE SQUARE
A FEW MORE WEEKS AND I’LL BE THERE.
THE PLANE TOUCHES DOWN,
MY HEART BEATING SO FAST.
TABERNACLE SPARKLING IN THE SUN.


SALT LAKE CITY, TEMPLE SQUARE
A FEW MORE DAYS AND I’LL BE THERE.
HEAD HELD HIGH, BADGE PINNED ON MY CHEST,
IN GOD’S ARMY WE ARE THE BEST.


SALT LAKE CITY, TEMPLE SQUARE
A FEW MORE HOURS AND I’LL BE THERE.
GRAY GRANITE RISING MAJESTIACLLY;
CHRIST WAITING WITH ARMS OPEN WIDE.


SALT LAKE CITY, TEMPLE SQUARE
A FEW MORE STEPS
AND I’LL BE THERE.
