I Could Have Stayed Home

The karmic wheel turned to a world torn and burned by war and lust and greed and this Incarnations' need to Love. Tentatively, the teen reached out (from the childs' abuse and doubt) to the grown-up herd and the curious word said to be ... Love ... which led to a merry-go-round a wheel of names bound by their own karmic games. I could have stayed Home, never come to wander and roam an Earth of endless pain. If not for the beauty of mountain and plain and sunset shore, I'd go ... but I'd leave a little dog behind whose Love I do know. So I will stay here long amused at how I chose wrong and left that Light called Home far beyond this space toward where my soul does race to return to ... until another time ... Or perhaps, to leave no more.
