Home

Do you remember where you came from? Where your feet laid first? Do you remember the feel of the earth beneath your feet where you took your first few steps, do you remember how hard the earth felt  when you fell? Do you remember the feel of it when you ran speeding past everyone and anyone as you raced your best friend home? Do you remember?

Do you remember the sound of the air as the ocean's waves carried you upon the safety of the wooden boat that drifted gently upon the water? Do you remember the taste of salted fish and even slated seaweed downed by the  filling taste of coconut water? Do you remember how beautiful the sun looked shinning it's colour filled rays upon the sun kissed ocean? Do  you remember how at peace everything looked when drizzled on by the winter snow in the star light nights? And do you remember how angelic everything looked in the whiteness of a cold winter when the sunrise touched it....well that was something special wasn't it? Do you remember that? Do you remember how you left your home looking back at the red stoned houses, the wooden tree woven huts, the palm leaves swaying in the sun, the golden sand twinkling in the daylight, the seagulls flying in the air? Do you remember the tranquil ocean's waves swaying back and forth. Do you even remember the promise that you made about how you'll go back there, to the place where it all began; back to the place where you came from and that you'll never forget? Do you even remember that?
Do you remember...remember home.
