Longing

Rebecca

Though now the clouds roll over me

as the west winds have blown

I find I long for distant plains

endless skies I have known

 

But what to me was east and west

and lure of many lands

could never replace the green grass

with tepid heated sands

 

For here was where I set my roots

bright summers in the glen

A-wash in colors of the fall

your heart shines now as then

Author's Note

While at times I long for adventure from my misspent youth. I always turn to Becky and smile, realizing, I have come to the end of the rainbow.

dear Tate... the end of the Rainbow is our reward...
when suddenly we realize that it was there all along.
Beautiful verses of a song that is still in your repertoire.
truly, Pat

Hi Christine thank you so much. Becky and I are watching Rome on amazon Prime. Love this show

A picture of domestic bliss. I don't know the show called Rome Tate. Will have to check it out.

It’s great

[likesgreeneggsandham]

Absolutely beautiful and so refreshing coming from my own place of darkness. This was so touching and so well executed. Loved the song too. Bravo

[Tate Morgan]

Thank you so much. I’m quite humbled by that. Everything a man is. Everything he claims to having done. Can be followed back to the live of a woman. In this case my Rebecca.
