Home is Hope

 


Through the morning sunrise,


above the elongated hills of green,


there appeared a glow.


In this mirage, I saw what could be.


Into the night fall,


receding warmth crept


back into the arms of the land.


Hope seeped through the crevasses,


And crawled into the hearts of those in need.


Somewhere beneath the curved horizon,


there was a place for my children and I.



A home to lay our heads.

Critique:The imagery came through crystal clear on this one. Obviously written by a mother. ;) Home use to be a santuary for kids and now has become hell to some. My favorite part was "Hope seeped through the crevasses," Loved this one Kat, Great job. ~Ron~

Critique:So visual & so beautiful. You're right, home isn't about bricks and mortar, it's about being safe & happy with the ones you love. I can't say which is my favourite line, they all equally beautiful & full of feeling.
