The Homecoming
Chugged, the train, on a rollScreeching to a swift halt.
I jumped, quick, a happy doll
A pleasure, both sweet and salt
The morning, fresh, and dew clear
Lazily lifting fog, and wet earth
Walking along, a hero`s tread
With pride, adventure so near
Filled the lungs, of sweetest air
Whistling along, a hip hop song
Wind sweeping my gentle hair
Smiling at the birds, road so long.
Amidst crowded buffalo herds
Trotting upon paddy fields
Greeting sunshine with pleasant words
On my toes, with restless heels.
At the gate, floating at heart
Fluttering butterflies, a thousand,
Fluttering in my stomach; I shout!
“I`m home!” Home sweet home!

thanks for stopping by on my blog. Your blog is marvellous as well, and to me, in some ways, you and your blog are reminiscent of the old show "Malgudi Days", which of course, is a compliment :)
@Suraj : Suraj, You know what ?? That was an awesome compliment..! "Malgudi Days" is a masterpiece, the stories as well as the show. Thanks a lot! Do keep visiting. :)
