‘I was born with the meaning of home running through my veins.’ - Lauren Eden ************************************************************** Light with home rule in my veins paternal care not vain words motherly hug a retreat sisterly smiles like rays of sunshine the mind free to wander like the breeze early to rise a routine offering devotions a sheer joy the glow of inner light now illumines my journey of life goads me to the rightful path ever keeps me company as a benign guardian as I steadily trail my footsteps during the midday sunshine in the solemn silence of sunset alongside solitary moonlit footpaths and in the darkness of night when I retreat home to lay my head back on my pillow
