Two Roads Diverge In Yellow Wood

A place that feels quite like home,
With old and young, 
Fashioned and new,
With poets quite like lovers,
Friends that are like brothers,
Sisters and den mothers,
The experianced and lecturing,
Who feel that they are fathers,
Theres the lost who are seeking,
And the Found who are singing,
Praying and speaking,
Crying and laughing,
Warmth of the Hearth we all sit around,
And sip on the soup of life that we've found,
It's a magical cure,
That make the old feel new,
And help the young to relate,
To those who are true,
No other place feels quite like home,
I bet this was the place,
Robert Frost was seeking down his road.

Jay – I like this work very much and you do indeed seem possibly beyond your years with your way of writing. Thane’s for the mention you’re too kind

This Piece was inspired by a write by Leonard Taormina, Robert Frost's "The Road Not Taken" and by all of my friends and "family" on the soup. Some of you I have known for years, and some of you I have just met, and some of you I have yet to meet, but this is for you all <3 With Love, Jay
