THE WAY HOME
Time went by so quickly…
So many summer suns and winter snows.
They were remembering all their family times together…
but it was time for him to go.
This is the way it’s meant to be…
one of life’s classic paradigms…
The chid grows up and moves away…
it's never easy when it’s time…
Because they know the world can be filled with darkness
his parents were nervous…as was he…
But they also knew that he was ready
it was time to set him free…
“You needn’t be afraid”, they said,
as tears fell from their eyes
and they whispered as they hugged him..
“It is your time to fly…”
“For no matter where you go”, they said,
“No matter where you roam.”
“Follow the light that’s in your heart
and it will always lead you home…”
“You see our heart glows with that same light.”
“You will find it in the stars…”
“If you follow it when you need to
your light will lead you back to ours.”
And he walked with a little more confidence
the moment he was gone…
knowing even when his life is darkest…
their light is always on.
