Most Long Term Migrants

Most long term migrants do retain a strong sense of place
Where to many today their's may not be a known face
Though content today in the place or town they live in
They often think of where their life's journey for them did begin
Call it patriotism or nostalgia or call it what you may
In most migrants love of first homeplace does stay
Though they have not been to there for many years
And for what used to be have long shed their last tears
Memories of original families and friends today they retain
And in their visualizations they go home again
Of the what used to be only thoughts in them last
And in memory they only can go to the past
But of where they were born and raised the mental images do stay
And will be with them until their last night and day.
