Each time I thought it was time to "go home" again, it was not my time but to those who have visited "home", the memory leaves you wistful.

So far, you have won our encounters I begin to run towards the goal line Ball in Hand I can feel it I can see it A relief that is You tackle me and I must begin again This time I see the jump My horse and I We set up, begin to push over I feel us both lose our balance Down to the ground we go Crying, red faced and angry I rise again I quietly set up This time, determined to reach my goal For a moment in time, I am jovial Allowing myself to feel like old again I primp, I laugh, I joke Because I know you now I see how you block me Why, I do not know On the other side The sun shines brightly, happiness is for all time I will begin again Next time, I may come in first

Being blocked isn't fun and should be fought nonstop, or remove yourself from the situation. Love it. A work of art. Liz

I loved this poem, that is the question of ages isn't it, I guess the answer would depend on you, and where you find your home at
