I’ve been ticking off the days
until my home coming day
when I’ll step back
into my dream
and be home.
 
And today
I’m back
though
I know
that I was never here before
that I was only dreaming
 
but I can feel home
tugging at me
drawing me
along the familiar path
through the woods,
pulling me inside
surrounding me
in the sweetness
of heart and hearth.
 
It’s the day I’ve been dreaming for
but it’s gone.
