    Home Again

    Seasons come and seasons go,
    By and by the years grow old,
    Houses crumble, new ones rise,
    In the land of open skies.

    Days and nights pass away,
    Leaves fall and then decay,
    Our children leave for adulthood,
    Farmers walk where the wheat once stood.

    While the past holds memory and song,
    And in the present, our families grow strong.
    If the future holds love or pain,
    May we all one day, come home again.

      to my dad & mom,

      for all you do,

      for all you are,

      i love you.

      My heart bursts its banks, spilling beauty and goodness.

      I pour it out in a poem to the king,

      shaping the river into words.

      Psalm 45:1 (The Message Bible)

      thank you

      to my King and Savior for igniting my soul and capturing my heart…

      to my entire family and my dear friends for your enthusiasm, love, prayers, comments, encouragement, and support…

      be inspired… be blessed.

      The Heart is for my grandparents

      A Covenant of Love is for my parents

      One Bomb is for the Hiroshima and Nagasaki survivors
