Il Mio Passaporto

This morning I mailed in my passport.

It was about to expire and I needed to renew.

I have mixed emotions about it:

First, I feel slightly anxious--

I can't go anywhere until I get it back.

Second, I am a bit sad--

This passport has taken me to many places:

Europe, Asia, Canada.  It has stamps and visas.

But mostly, I'm just excited--

Ten years is a long time to wait for a new photo.
