It has been too long since I have returned. I didn’t mean to be gone so long, but the days are long – even if the years are short.

I know you wait. Patiently. Longingly. As I go about my days, weeks, months, and years – you stand there, nearly unchanging, for my return. I long for you too. The feeling of home, your loving embrace. You think I don’t miss you, but I do more than you’ll ever know.

It doesn’t matter how far I have been from this place, when I walk under the loving arms of this tree, the mill, beside the house…I know I am home.

  3. Beautifully written and heart felt. This piece brims with emotion. It is wonderful to have a place if home to go back to but sometimes I think we should go back alittlr more because people are our home and they only stay as long as their time allows.
