- You Know What I Mean When I Say Homesick -

A child is born
  a little life it's a miracle
  Death is nothing to fear
  but feels like
  autumn leaves on cold snow

  Brothers
  is not
  like night and day
  or
  the sun and the moon
  They are seeds from
  life and love

  Sisters
  is like
  flowers
  with different fragrance
  and color
  But they have the roots
  from the same garden

  Family
  several generations
  their lives together
  complicated
  or uncomplicated
  Grandmother's garden ...
  with homesickness

  Life reflects
  and caught the light,
  radiance and hope
  in old memories

For all of us homesick might be individualized, but you are right as per usual. You understand what is important. I think about this more and more. What a beautiful and optimistic poem you have written.
