Dark streets, tiny feet
Pretty darling, come home
Don’t lose your way
Just come home
Keep faith, walk straight
Let the lights guide you
Where you belong
Just come home
Don’t fall down, just calm down
The angels watch you right now
They’ll pray for you
I’ll do too
Lose your fears, don’t shed tears
I’ve taught you to be brave
Give a smile
Just come home
Wild wolves chase you
Too young to know that
Don’t lose your way
Just come home

You are so welcome. You know, I used to not really enjoy poetry. Maybe it was those stressful English classes in high school. But, thanks to you I am enjoying poetry again. So, thank you.

Sounds like words that the mother in the story that I posted today, “Coming Home,” could have said. Very nice.

You’ve captured the protectiveness of those who are vulnerable. I felt my inner “mother” coming out reading these lines, and remembrances of my children’s navigation through life. Beautiful!
