Making connection

Miles to go before we take the plane tonight.  Still curious to me how this place feels like home.  Yes, I did live here before... but there is something about the water that connects everything... even the drainage ditch behind the house in Illinois.  Today brings three more connections that I know about, but I imagine there are always more connections to make.

The river flows outside our window

Sixteen floors up.

It is Monday.

We will check out

Of this place

Before we check in

To three more things:

College.

College.

Airport

To fly home.

This home business

Is curious.

I used to be anchored

On the other side

Of this river.

Rivers flow

As they always do.

This river somehow connects

To all the rest,

Even the drainage ditch

On the other side

Of the backyard fence

At home.

They*re all connected

The home bits and pieces

Are all connected.
