"home" milestones....

.....a brief stop for gas and I was on my way home.
Home where I grew up.
Home that continues to nourish my soul.
Home where my parents reside.


.....so many miles separate me from home,
and it’s all so exciting when I begin to travel East.


Most excursions leading home in the past
afforded me sleep or reading.
Hub does all the driving
as he isn’t one to sit in the passenger’s seat.
Reflecting back
as I was steering the wheel behind my little ride,
I was reminded that my focus
must always be on the direction.
You see…I’m not as familiar with the direction
…only with several milestones.


The land changes as I travel
from Alabama thru Georgia and onto South Carolina
…all the way to Bville.
Nine and a half hours of travel
looking for my “home” milestones
and regarding all of God’s beauty.
