Toil and Rest

Blog 172:

Evening tide invites rest
After a day-long toil
He who left at early dawn
Returns home once more
To commonplace, yet familiar surroundings
As soon as the gate and door open to home
He is greeted first by his caring mother
And embraced next by his loving son
The gestures comfort an exhausted body
And all is fine … 
Even the back pains and aching shoulders
Seem to loosen and relax
As reunion takes place
And secure, safe surroundings
Find him …
Comforted
Loved
Appreciated
