Submitted By - Veronica Kincade We worried the phone call would come and he would have to go.

When would my lineman return home? We didn't know.

I wait by the phone to hear his voice each day.

God heard my prayers & he's okay.

I know there are others who may need him more.

I had to let him go to them & trust in the Lord.

For the work he does, there are only a chosen few.

Some men only dare to walk in his shoes.

I know the people need their lights.

Please be patient with him, this man is my life.

I'm waiting for the hour he's again by my side.

My love for him is overwhelming & my heart filled with pride.

Each night I'm falling asleep alone.

I wait for the phone call "Baby, I'm coming home".

I'm praying for the night he's in my arms safe & warm.

For I know without a doubt our love and faith is stronger than the storm.

To Kent with all my love
