Return to Home

Home
12 months gone and passed.
Longing to return home
to his little girl, smiling at last.

Home
back to home-cooked meals
Forgotten what he's even missed
but it all comes back; tiny giggles and squeals.

Home
back to his girls; his world.
He takes a moment to appreciate
his good luck; gazing at her blue eyes and little curls.

Home
They've gone through a blizzard; a storm.
this time though, he's decided
to stay and protect, guard, and keep them warm.
