Vee Bdosa Poet Lyric

Homecoming

THE HOMECOMING
Our need to fade, be yesterday
dry up and then just blow away,
'tis but to go where all belong
where life won't have the timing wrong.

our need to leave this world behind
to go someplace not there find
is just a part of what is not,
another road, alone has brought.

Beyond the trees, we bear the load
our need to find another road.
we disappear around the bend
discovering, there is no end.

Vee Bdosa January 8, 2016 at 12:06 PM My amazement, I see quite often when I do stuff like this with another poet, is how similar our lines of thought are even though neither of us has read or has a hint at what the other, in this case Edwin writing about the sailor and home, is writing. I see several parts of his that reflect what I was thinking at the time.

Judy Konos January 8, 2016 at 11:05 AM I think you captured the picture to perfection but then what have you ever written that is not perfect? Nothing that I can recall.....Thank You and did you see where Edwin called this ' Incredible' ...
