In Case I Forget

July 28, 2018 by Chris Gribble

In case I forget
Where is home,
What is mine,
I am reminded,
After absence
By my daughters joyous hug,
And, how
Joy flutters, in me
Briefly, her loveliness
Stays, visiting intensely,
Then she will pass by,
Leaving,released
Into her joy
Hoping its expansive arms
Wrap around me, too,

I sometimes forget
What belongs to me
Where is home,
Forgetting to rest,
Absent,
I forget the joy, waiting,
The flutter
Arriving to my inner parts
The need to stay right here
Now,
My daughter’s hug
Reminds me
Just in case I forget.
