All Headed Home! Poem by Eric Cockrell

All Headed Home!

Rating: 3.5


sundown,
color drenched mountains,
new budding trees
reach out to touch.
just a hint of coolness,
the distant smell of woodsmoke.
people pass in a hurry,
all headed home.

and so we are,
at sundown and waiting.
remembered in color,
forgotten by touch.
hurrying after
a scent in the distance,
all headed home...
all headed home!

There are many common experiences of life which pass unnoticed...but poet's thinking can make an ordinary routine a special thing like...sundown n all headed home...
