Familiar smiles....some known faces <br />Childhood memories...long summer races <br /> <br />A yellow little bird... its tune I knew <br />Will take me to the place where I grew <br /> <br />My vagabond heart needs to rest <br />After years...I'm returning to nest <br /> <br />A hometown boy returning home <br />I've been to Acapulco...and been to Rome <br /> <br />I hope to see my childhood friend <br />The wooden horse, my wish stallion...comprehend? <br /> <br />Sun kissed houses <br />Neat little places <br /> <br />Childhood memories <br />Some known faces <br /> <br />I pass by the brook, and there it stands <br />Miles of meadow, the outlands <br /> <br />Every single blade of grass <br />Was waiting for me... I too was! <br /> <br />Sorry, grass... but I can’t stop <br />My home’s calling, from hill top <br /> <br />Home again, I’m happy to be <br />Here I’ll rest till eternity!<br /><br />Saurabh Som<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/home-coming-3/
