was home, the home in Oklahoma
My father's home, sleeping outdoors on the sly
Dad wasn't there
The house was there, surrounded by cedars
There was some event, art community members gathering
Walking toward me after i just awakened
There by a row of tables by the fence
Where a stacked wall of pioneer stone left over unused by our chimney makers
Separated the three acres from the highway
I walked out to greet the visitors
A bit embarrassed but only surprised
I didn't see anyone I knew
But they were familiar
No one said
That's his son or offered me a sandwich and coffee
So I woke up the dream stopped
I woke up in a bed under a roof on a mattress
Sheets comforter and a french press cooled down from two hour nap
Home, home on the range in my browser
Home lyrics on my mind
