Take Me Home Again

Take me home again to when I was a child walking down that dirt road to a distant house, where I grew up under my grandmother’s watchful eyes. Let me be that little girl who knew I was loved. Take me home again to those carefree days of childhood innocence playing in the backyard with my imaginary dreams give me back that promise of the future newly inspired by hope of fulfillment. Let me be that child of change unknowing the threats of the outside world. Take me home again where everything was new and possible full of right and ringing loud of freedom, give me back that unconditioned love that my grandmother had come to America with. Keep it safe, alive and living free for my twilight years and the children still dreaming.
