Grief nested in every corner
Sorrow-filled heart cocooned, exhausted
Gasping for life, strangled by years of separation
Yearning for loved ones in far away lands
Praying in despair for a moment of contentment
Of reunion
Lo and behold
Gracious Hands descend in abundance
Carrying loved ones on wings of mercy
Gathering them one by one
Inside this weary heart they danced and smiled
Under their feet wild flowers bloom
Thank You dear Lord, they’ve come back home
