Broken road to home

Posted on February 26, 2018 by Lynz Real Cooking

_DSC0460

Trail of tears wash down a river

Speck of sunlight warms my hand

What was lost now longs for Springtime

Freedom from the frozen ground

Crocus buds do burgeon calling

Broken road that leads me home

Everything has its melancholy, right? Even though the path that leads to the light is bringing happy tears.

Lyn, So poignant.

Does this connect to the ‘Trail of Tears’ the Native Americans walked? The beginning of that trail was near where I live in Ohio, and I suspect led out your way! Just another interesting connection…

I hope the sun is shining on you today!
