It was a long ways away
A long time ago.
To see his grandson up bearing his testimony
Looking like he might have looked as a young man
I haven’t seen him since he moved away
Around age 10.
He was related to me on all four of my lines;
But I still chose him for my boyfriend when
My girlfriends and I whispered in the chicken coop.
He was listening outside
So he knew.
Tremors of something familiar touched my heart,
as his grandson who served a mission here,
bore his testimony in our ward this morning
so far away from the beginning;
so long ago.
