The Very Heart Of Things

Its been awhile since I visited the Pub.  

When I read Brian's post "A New Dawn" 

...well what can I say, I had to join in for old times sake

The steps creaked, impaired by time

With hesitation I caressed the railing

The porch scent was welcoming 

 Overwhelming melancholy was tangible 

With each breath so deep 

I surrendered and closed my weeping eyes 

With one sure step the threshold 

transported me back in time...

To the beginning...now the end

Yet everything old seemed new again

After the body rush, little remained 

Wanderlust lead to many a place

But always we seem to return to grace 

In an old house

In the very heart of things

I sat and reminisced

On the old Porch swing
