Home

A place I retreat to

at times to retreat from

where joy brims

anger seethes

where one feels held

and at times most misunderstood

a witness to 

births, rebirths

grief and memories, blurring

welcome solitude, sometimes aching lonliness

love and passing hope

passions overflowing

aging, forms changing

a place that bears marks of lives lived and loved

A place called HOME
