Homecoming Hero
(Dedication: For my son Michael Zachary, who
came home after jungle survival training.)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here we await news that bring joy;
Observe fond feel as time allows;
Move near the gate as good sense toys;
Etch happy thrill right here somehow;
Choose to sit still in traffic surge;
Opt to see through our anxious chimes;
Mind how we fill moments of urge;
Indulge fast cues in waiting time;
Notice mood swing in journey home.
Gain focal view of planes landing;
Heed what time brings from foreign roam;
Expect a cue of homecoming;
Roar most happy as we sight kin;
Observe wildly what love has seen.
