Poetry: The Homecoming
As the road winds through a familiar passage.
Across the dusk canvas a welcoming aura emanates
From the city and streets I once called my own,
This is my homecoming.
Smiles dawning on the mouths of friends in waiting
And mine, mine as well as I know the joys to come...
Where trails converge tales emerge, old new alike
Cheers to you you you, round round round.
Lives change and change, love and weight and work
Lost gained gained lost, yet no one's really changed.
The old refrain sang and sung, off key in harmony
Midnight wick sits searing, behind the window pane.
From the town I loved, the roads winds away.
My gaze now content on faces in the dashboard
Smiles dawning of the mouths of family waiting
And mine, mine as well as I know the joys to come...
This is my homecoming.
