Longing

How I long for the tumbleweed, rich prairie soil, green stains on my jeans from the long, juicy grass, the songs of the frogs, my father's deep voice, my mother's goulash, my innocent youth and a rain water bath. How I long for my childhood, my magical past.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
