Coming Home ~*Marge Tindal*~ May new roads rise to meet you Old friends gently greet you May your troubles float so swiftly down the stream May new love soon surround you and blessings quite astound you as you reach the bend in the road that brings you home May tender arms enfold you New love so gently hold you as you ease into the comfort of finally coming home May you settle into knowing no more will you be going across the wrinkled roadmap that took you far away May familiar faces smiling ease your heart gently into wiling the pleasured hours away now that you're finally home ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Marge, this is so beautiful and so comforting. Loved it. Je t'aime plus qu'hier et moins que demain." I love you more than yesterday and less than tomorrow (unkown) |

Marge, every poem by you just amazes me, you must live, breath and sleep poetry to be so talented. I only wish that I was half as gifted as you are. This is a beautifully serene and uplifting poem. I had to re-read it twice, it was that good. I love it! "May tender arms enfold you new love so gently hold you as you ease into the comfort of finally coming home" perfect lines! Take care, Melissa Honeybee |

Hi Marge, This is awesome, just well awesome it belongs on a card, sometimes you just amaze me dear with the beauty and love that pours from your heart, I know in my heart you are special because you come from the same world as I yet always have the strength and love to share with the world you are truly one of a kind. Love, Cerenity |

DarkAngel~ I am so pleased to know it conveyed comfort. That's what I felt as it came to me. Thank you. Melissa~ Thank you for such kind remarks. I only know how to 'listen' to the muses who speak to my heart. Cerenity, my friend~ This one came to me from the 'musing tree' where I took my lunch break yesterday at work. I swear I've never seen such magic that flows from her branches and drops to my heart. I actually scrawled it on an envelope as I sang it then tucked it in my purse for posting later. Thank you for enjoying it. Tracie~ Honey, I thank you. This part-Irish lassie hopes that it is a universal blessing as well. Eloise~ Thank you. Nice to see your smiling face. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Marge....I can only echo the comments already made. You continue to amaze with such wonderful work! God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. ~Unknown |

This does have a very comforting feel to it, much like the 'Cherished Irish Blessing' hanging in my kitchen that my Dad made for me when he first got his computer. That is what this reminded me of as I read it! Denise |

LoneWolf~ May the road that leads home always know your footsteps. Thank you, my friend. EagleOne~ I appreciate your thoughts. Thank you. Denise~ I'm glad you found comfort and Irish familiarity in it. Makes me feel that perhaps it is an Irish blessing from the musing tree. Love ya' ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

Simply beautiful poem, Marge!! That 'musing tree' sounds quite wonderful to me! Your heart is so open to beauty...it flows in and out of you like the tide that flows onto the beach and off again. Love you Marge! Love and hugs, Lizzie "Poetry is the true expression of my soul, it is my ultimate means of communication. It is my rainbow of delight." |

This is beautiful Marge .. I pictured many a weary face, tired of long travels, lighting up as they got closer and closer to "home" ... wonderful visuals it stirred in my mind. Lovely Marge! Best wishes, /Kit |

Lil' Lizzie~ Hello, hon. The 'musing tree' is a 60 (+/-) year old fir tree that lends her shade for many of my lunch breaks at work. She never fails to sing to me ... I just listen and pen it. Glad you enjoyed. Kit~ Thank you. There is something magical about the feeling of 'home' that draws us ever there, bringing joy when we reach her door. Glad you liked. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |

SpitFire~ Thanks so much. To be aware of how many have found it calming is to validate the very reason it was brought to me. I so appreciate your comments. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ [email protected] |
