headed home to dreamy town
my heart and soul are there
it's just a sleepy little burg
with a homey, quiet air
the homes are closely nestled
together on a hill
the people recognize me
it's such a welcome thrill
children's voices call me
aunt julie, play a game
what blessed reassurance
that everything's the same
mom is in the kitchen
and dad is in his chair
my siblings' love surrounds me
oh what a love we share
delicious food and laughter
a trivia game to play
my soul sighs in satisfaction
oh how i want to stay
goodbye my special dreamy town
i'll say a little prayer
that when i next come visit
i'll find my solace there
happy thanksgiving, all!!
