I have woken up
To weeping sorrow
And have slept with
Many a gloomy grief
I have cherished
The reminders of
Happy moments brief
And picked upon
The glory of
Many a rising sun
And seen
The cows come home
When it was
Sinking in the horizon
And in the night
The stars
Have played
Hide and seek
With me
And making nice
The moon
Has appeared
On half those nights
Slice by slice
From the valleys
In the mountain
And from the
Shores of the sea
The breeze
And the waves
Keep coming back
To me
Moving on
To keep
Moving on
In directions
Instincts send
With every
Steep and turn
Careful just
To avoid
A dead end
And faster
As I ventured
The trees
Close to me
Barely
Could I see
And the ones
Faraway
Travelled along
With me
Like most
Of man
Known unknown
Upon this earth
Have come
To roam
As each
One of us
Leaves
Home for Home
