Coming Home

I've been away so very long
and it feels wrong
not to be near
my friends so dear

I'm lost without the words you say
what you display
all that you share
the way you care

So now I'm here to let you know
I've missed you so
and with this poem
I'm coming home





This is dedicated to all the talented and wonderful poets on this site.  God Bless you all!



My dear Soup friends, how I have missed you!  I am so looking forward to reading your 
beautiful words and commenting to you when I get home this evening!  My love and best 
wishes to you all!  Love, Robin

Hi Robin, I don't know when your left or how long you've been gone, as I am only about three months, myself. Welcome home, maybe no more to roam? Sincerely, John Moses
