Just A Thought: This doesn’t feel like Home
Vince Reidsma
I want more than to return home to familiar
sights, sounds, smells, and the sense of security.
Just to arrive in my town, my community,
gives a feeling, a sense of belonging in
these familiar streets and quaint
neighborhoods with churches, schools, and places of business.
And when I walk through the door of my
home I expect that I’ll get a warm fuzzy
feeling and say, “Ahh, it’s good to be back
home; this is the place that I can count on
and there is safety here.”
Just a Thought: Moments almost missed by grandpa
Vince Reidsma
Keep me up at night,
Things should’ve done,
We’ve raised our family,
They have kids of their own,
I can have do-overs
Clothes hung on the floor,
Stuff that would bug me
Don’t matter anymore.
“Twas expected of me;”
Past jobs are now relics,
Careers – A thing of the past,
We’ve been given this moment
To do something that will last.
Let’s look at our blessing,
This life that we’ve got,
A second chance given,
Our grandkids are a gift
But even they will soon leave,
