Morning Poems

Return of the Repentant

Return of the Repentant

I drove along a busy road

that led from here to there.

I saw the glitz along the way;

it pulled from everywhere.

But now I'm back, and here I'll stay—

I'll lay me here to sleep.

It's here I'll live, it's here I'll die,

forever yours to keep.

This is an ancient theme. Here is a Haiku I wrote four or five years ago in that vein:

Go climb that mountain,

that mountain inside of you.

Then come home to me.
