The next poem I am going to Post was again written at Camp Tecumseh.

Friends II

Miles away from home,
From the friends I love,
Thro' Your love
Thro' praying to you
The gap is closed
As we're linked together,
All living in You
All as one.

Camp Tecumseh, New Jersey, USA - August 1989.

At the time my close friends were scattered around the World in Leningrad (as it still was), Northwich, Paris, Bradford and Munich to name a few places. Its still pertinent now as I am obviously still miles away from so many people. Although the choice I made I know was the right one and I am very happy in the US and especially in Raleigh, it doesn't mean that it is always easy and that I do not miss family and friends scattered around the world.

-Richard
