Today is Saturday 22nd of December 2018, 7.00am, and I’ve been home a night, after basically a six week stay in hospital. I’m not over all my problems yet, I’m very tired, both physically and mentally, and it’s going to take me a while to recover. hopefully I’ll end up ok. Anyhow, It’s lovely to be home, and I thought I’d repost this old poem of mine,please enjoy.
Take me to my home
Home is where my heart is
Home’s on that windy hill
Above a secret valley
Hovering, a heavenly cloud
Take me to my home
I’m waiting here alone
All packed ready to go
Vacating this old place
Leaving this world behind
Take me to my home
The beyond will be greener
I know you’ll be there
You’ve been waiting so long
I know you’ll hold me again
Hold me in our home
Ivor Steven (c) 2018.
Good that you’re home Ivor. I’m sure you’ll fee much better in your own, familiar surroundings.

You are.not ready to go to the home you are writing about dear friend. Carole will know when it’s time and she will come for you. Near the end of my wife’s life, when she was in the hospital for the umpteenth time, she said to me, “I want to go home. ” I told her the doctor would decide when I could take her home, and she said, “No, I mean home to God.” Her wish was granted two days later. Hugs & Love to you dear friend.
