Note: To fully understand the poem you can read my story "Where the Road Leads".


At Home at last

Here I am bound

My grief is past

My Joy is found

The Road was long

It journeyed far

By morning song

By twinkling star

The longest quest

Ahead it loomed

In travels blessed

In travels doomed

Where would it lead?

I knew not where

I did not heed,

I did not dare

My path so worn

The woe too near

A burden borne

And no more cheer

Across the Sea

Into the West

He then saw me

He gave me rest

His Eyes of gold

Could search, could seek

So warm, so old

Well, so to speak

His Breath my cure

His Voice my peace

And now I'm sure

My sorrows cease

At Home at last

Here I am bound

My Grief is past

My Joy is found
