Finally Heading Home

Finally heading home, going dowhill; not being afraid of a sudden fall... The baseballfield has the appearance of a battlefield, opponents teams fiercily compete; I glance at them with great admiration, lauding their aspiration as the gusty wind snatches my blue cap...to find it hanging from the top of the fence that overlooks the rusty tracks of a train that never went back... The cheers and hurrays of the applauding crowd fill the autumn air with promise; victory is,for certain, for those enduring with boldness, but joyful moments are worthy more than a price... despite the honor and pride! Finally heading home from an adventerous morning spent exploring the depth of the forest; where emotions become surprises, not found in the glamorous cities or the smallest towns... Remoteness reconnects the lost soul to the essential needs of a-not-so-rapid and dull existence!
