The Road Home

I drift, I sail, and I fall from sight far away.

I follow the wind and pink hues of the sleepy day.

The road so straight, so narrow burnt into my mind.

I drift like the dust into the passages of another time.

I follow no pattern, my boundaries unlimited-unseen.

Yesterday is but my shadow and tomorrow my secret dream.

You see me now and in the blink of an eye I am suddenly gone.

For I follow HIS voice as I travel the long straight road home.

Tell J.D. the photo is gorgeous and illustrates the poem well. That road is often a difficult one to follow, but you keep on and share your faith so beautifully.
