Count Down
Ten
Nine
Counting down the time to a new life
and there's excitement, but trepidation

Eight
seven
It gets closer
Things to tie up
Will I be ready for a different life
New language to grasp
New routines
different tasks

Six
five
and time is ticking
So many things I must pack
Time
it moves too fast

Four
Three
Much more to fit in
Friends and family to see
I hope
they won't forget
to text and video chat with me

Two
One
The bags are packed
we're waiting to board
I know I'll enjoy this adventure
I know many would love the chance

Zero and off we go
I will enjoy the dance
