COMING BACK.
COMING back to my home, That is dearer than ever ; To the strong and beautiful ties That no fortune can sever. Coming back to the love Of the dear ones that miss me The darlings so dear to my heart That will welcome and kiss me. Coming back to the warmth Of my children’s caresses ; To the fire light and home-light that cheers While it comforts and blesses. Coming back to the place Where deception ne’er lingers ; Where truth weaves the web of our life With delicate fingers. Coming back to ‘ sweet home,’ With its cares and pleasures ; A spot that I would not exchange For earth’s richest treasures.
Mrs M. A. Kidder.
