The Distance Between Us

I am home!
up the steps
through the door
where is Mom
I want to cry out to her
The war is over,
I am home!
I want to hold her
to bury my face in her
sweet warm neck
Mom always smells of vanilla
and cookies
I want to run to her
to close this distance between us

Dad? Where is Dad
ahh there he is,
sitting at the table
stirring his coffee
Dad! look at me
I'm home!
Why do you look so sad
come on Dad,
give me a hug
close this distance between us

oh,oh wait there's Anne
sweet little sister Annie
always smiling, laughing
Annie? what's wrong?
why are you crying Annie
come closer let me hold you
close this distance between us

from the corner of my eye
a door opens
a light shines,warm
a friendly face appears
Sarge? Sarge is that you
what are you doing here
and who is that behind you
Grandpa? Gandpa!
Grandpa, I've missed you so much
remember when we used to go fishing Grandpa
and still another face
familiar yet strange
he smiles and says
"welcome home my son,
your work on earth is done"
he reaches out his hand and
closes the distance between us.
