We smile and nod our heads.
Occasionally we say, “Hello.”
We stop and talk over the top of picket fences.
“How are you all doing?”
“Good. How about y’all?”
Sound bites of sentences
Pieced together over months
Combining to make up a conversation.
“We really need to have you over to dinner.”
“We would love to. Give us a call.”
One day a sign shows up in your yard.
The next month you’re gone.
We didn’t even get to say, “Bye.”
(Stephen James)
“… and love your neighbor…”
(Jesus)
“… before they’re gone.”
(Matt)
