My dear, when you came here, <br />I did ask why you came near, <br />For, your eager steps stirred me not then; <br />The distance you crossed indeed was long <br />Of faltering steps of love and smile; <br />You lighted my soul, stirred dreams, <br />Roused gentle streams of joy in heart <br />And sprouted new hopes of life as never; <br />I indeed found life then an aureate soft light. <br /> <br /> <br />Alas, all human joys are short lived; <br />Why you thought you were unwelcome here <br />And retracted the path back home? <br />Wherever you stray, you must come back <br />And grace the place where you now belong; <br />Come, dear love, and make this your home <br />And gladden my soul with your little ways.<br /><br />Praveen Kumar in Shobha Priya<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/091-you-will-come-back/
