The Broken Road To Heaven

The broken road to heaven The broken road in need of maintenance through which we have traveled, mute and solemn to our delight was alight with millions of glow bugs; evening was another leaf fallen when I whisper to my friend Richard, “Is it heaven? Have we arrived at last?” he smiled, “we are yet to reach my home.” =© 2009 - All Rights Reserved Kushal Poddar

home is such a relative term. I wonder if Richard and you had the same concept on where your home truly is. Very interesting idea, love the glow bug imagery in this as well. -Yoni

Interesting approach to the way you see the road. I like the idea that there is a friend on the road. Thanks for sharing, Caroline.
