what effort
this forever took
of moments yesterday
with dreams to keep
and others
put away
floated down
with autumn leaves –
asleep beneath the snow
with souvenirs
of everything
we know
maps across
and taken down
pages folded now –
names and dates
reminding us
somehow
seasons
of surrender –
but a sign
of journeys past
the ways to home
– a long way back
at last
. . .

Home…, what is that; where is that ? I’ve searched for that house…, in so many towns…, in so many places…, only to understand that the only home I have is the one I carry within my heart. It’s not a location or a building, but a place within me. I know this probably isn’t what you were writing about, Bobbie, but it’s what your words brought to mind as I read them. Good Night, darlin’ girl. ~xo~
