Such beautiful 5 lines my good friend. So much within this creation. "I walk you home", a brilliant ending. This too is a gleaming gem that got me. A fav my friend. God bless you.

Very sad but nice tribute to your mommy. Mine virtually disowned me decades ago along with pops, but the good memories remain
