HOME IN EXILE
Before Ireland, home was the Iberian Peninsula.
Before the Iberian Peninsula my ancestors
roamed other lands along the Mediterranean Sea
and the Atlantic Ocean.
No place was home but in their ships.
To Rome and Egypt they went.
All of humanity are descendants of Noah.
The home of Noah was Shulon in East Eden.
Then, that was over and off in an ark he went.
We are said to be from his son Japseth.
Others are from his other sons.
The winds of time scatter historical records
all over the world, and most were destroyed.
Someone will discover a relic and say-
“Oh! What is this?"
Israelite Joseph and Moses were in exile in Egypt.
Moses carried the bones of Joseph out of Egypt.
I am in exile. Where should my bones be buried?
I have no land to call my home.
I, too, am a Stranger in a Strange Land.
The home of my heart is where my Beloved lives.
I would have my bones buried there.
And I know our home is not on this Earth.
It is a place beyond the sky. Beyond the sun and stars.
We are in exile from there.
