Little honey bee
flying wild and free
sees flowers all around

Near lonely lighthouse, a gull swoops down
to kiss the waves, then veer around
Back up skyward, pumping wings
~ gliding swiftly, homeward bound

He was simple minded and hearted
From his grandmother's house departed
As he was homeward bound
He got so turned around
Thus ended up back where he started

With his new gift he was homeward bound
Scarecrow signs showed it was no longer sound
scientist stress
his life was a mess
looking for his mind in the lost and found.

Parallel smoky white lines carve paths as
passage marked 'cross cobalt sky;
homeward-bound seraphim.

Burnt rubber
from grinding gears
awaken mine nostrils
Thickened fog
'pon darkened roads
embrace my sight
Four smiles leads a path
distance fades
as forty tons push me down Forty

A tragedy, a train derailed.
Not far in deep grief of the scene;
homeward-bound it so tried, but failed.
Burnt cork smell and images seen
veiled as they lay upon cold ground.

Hands twirled
The magical wand
Feet skimmed
Over the golden sands
A celestial sojourn
My butterfly was born
Draped in colours
She cushioned my feet
So long
I'm homeward bound-

Homeward bound, I had a one-way ticket,
Pleased; it was stashed safely in my pocket.
Showed it at the counter,
“Wrong route”, said the teller.
I should be at home to fly this ticket!

As the battle rages on
We are but the few
So many are here and gone
We are but the few
Standing solid on the ground
We are but the few
Still alive and homeward bound
We are but the few

ah yes the dreams of yester-year,
when life was young and sweet,
the age demon shifts a gear,
as homeward bound we creep,
doth sneer:)
bit *****,
i'll belt the little creep:)

You see,
More kindness will be seasoned by the strange of strangers.
Rather than the ones that have known you forever.
Till the crows come back around.
A strange of a stranger will neighbor the kindness for a homeward bound.

Acres of tears
Mark her passing
Enriching the soil
For time everlasting
Head bowed in sorrow
Sad sight to behold
I no longer have
Her arms to enfold
'Tho body is gone
Her spirits around
This person who made me
Is homeward bound.

Spring festival
Auspicious colours
Painting town red
Reunion dinner
Grand celebration
Hearts aligned
Homeward bound
To gather again
Good times come around
Joy sings
Spring chorus;
Familiar red packets
Laughing faces
Jolly feasting:
Memory subscribes

Nature walk in spring
Wonder what the day will bring
Dog kept on a leash
As we pass a field of sheep
Stop to help pregnant ewe
Trapped in fence her head pushed through
Homeward bound we should sleep sound

Rhyme
Dust falls on my brain
Covering the craters of my past
The surface lays undisturbed
As I want it to be
Until I am ready to ascend
Like the Lunar Module
Blasting away the few footprints
That I have left behind
I am homeward bound
Amongst the stars

Beyond companions
Trees without sounds
Birds homeward bound
Winter’s passing thru
Emptiness in view.
Rekindled
Day bids goodbye
Night stands by
All is kept
After nature slept
Edge of night
Not dark or light
Dim lit sky
Nature will fade
Time does trade

Most cry all night without making a sound, but I'm the only one
that feels blessed for what I have found. The distant stares into a world that is
unsound;The joy I will feel when I am homeward bound. The steel that contains my
body is very heavy; my thoughts will always be steady.

I do not know?
My heart is sad
And the way is lonely and long,
And there is a fear
that I may be lost.
The sun is set,
And the sky is gray and cold,
And I am, oh!
a home bound solitary bird--
Forlorn and perched
on the branch of a dead tree.

Riotous, raucous —
Rainbow parrots’ feathers fly.
Acrobatic clowns
Three great crows regard
The thrown away takeaway —
Keen, sharp, purposeful.
Butcherbirds on wire
Bowing and fluting in turn
A twilight concert.
Black wings on pink dawn.
Flying foxes homeward bound
To roost — full of fruit.

Stopping to contemplate a slug
I marveled at this taciturn bug
Designed to live underground
occasionally it is found
making its way ‘long a crosswalk
using up half a day’s clock
on its tortuous path homeward bound
~ never making one single sound

I bask in the warmth
Of heavens glow
Gentle raindrops
Bathe my soul
Daemons retreat
For where they came
To no longer point
Their fingers of blame
A healing light
As the sun shines down
Lighting my path
While I’m homeward bound
Rising up
From my fall from grace
I have arrived
At a sacrosanct place

With children in tow
on winter’s heels set off to
follow fine artists
Lovingly lost in copper,
canvas, bright color
framboise, tanager, yarrow
Picasso, Beckmann, Klimt
Woman with a Hat, Nighthawks
haunting, surreal …
Writing, painting, tones
sculpting, gazing, trudging on
weary, fulfilled, homeward bound …
