Array ( [sid] => 57113 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Home [time] => 2004-07-22 02:47:30 [hometext] => this poem is about going home well for me after 14 years of being away its amazing how the earth and the trees remember you. [bodytext] => The green leaves reach out to me as I walk by, thick trunks breath a sigh as if to empty them selves of my memories stored.
Years have gone by they are older now and their wisdom surpasses mine.
I breathe in air that is familiar and warm like the touch of my mother’s hand along my hair.
Security surrounds me here.

I walk upon the soft ground and with each step another sigh releases and I am flooded with fragrant remnants of my past.
The hills have grown to mountains and my childish laughter abounds, as I had conquered them once before.
The roads twist and turn with promise of adventure and I smile, as I know every bend.
For this home that was my beginning is now my end.

I know these feelings so well as I returned to my childhood home after retirement and it filled me with such love and comfort to return. There truly is no place like home. It is my beginning, it shall be my end.

Hugs,
Rita

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
