The Way Home

Preferred by those that know of nothing fair. Destroyed by sand that blows through consciousness. Existing in a vacuum of despair. I left that world behind I must confess. The wheels of hope extinguished memories. With every mile clouds would drift away. Until the devil's valley and disease. Were lost in natures brilliant grand foyer. Rejoice, the mountains, rivers of my home. Forsaken once so young and long ago. The years have swallowed up the urge to roam. And age has brought the need to take it slow. Thoughts now have left me of that evil land. Here God and nature hold me in their hand.
