Homewards

What makes four walls a home?

A feeling of being enough is home

A view of the streets, trees and other balconies makes it a home

Your child, watching him sleep makes it a home

Your husband's hands surprising your shoulders makes it a home

The doorbell when your child returns make it a home

His doodles on the walls make it a home

Home is the first friends your child brings home

The comfort of the familiar bed and your favorite corner makes it a home

You age, you grow, the home is witness to all that you are and have been

The children go away to find life leaving an empty nest, what remains makes it a home

Wherever you go, whatever you become and whatever life brings to you,

Your favourite journey will always be Homewards
