Swinging Low


I am a long way from home.  The older I get the more home and hearth mean to me.  I use to roam all over the world, like a rolling stone I was never content to be anywhere for long.  Now a quiet evening with my lover and our old dog, all of us nodding by the fire are like heaven.  I believe that is the way we are designed.  As we grow older the earth, even in all its glory cannot seem to quieten our soul.  There is a longing that begins that no bend in the river here can satisfy.  We are meant to go home and the longer we spend away the stronger our urge to be there.
