Coming back to an empty home

I want to ring the doorbell
-being in a hurry to see you?

Perhaps even a soft knock would do
-Lest I disturb you?

No!I wont!!!

Softly I turn the key
-incase you are far away on a dreamy trip?

Softly I close the door
-perhaps i can Surpise thee?

I can hear the wind flow
-through the open window

The curtains billow
-perhaps to caress you?

The rains cry
-bringing freshness and rejuvenation

And I wonder
If you would enjoy
Your stay here
At an empty home
As much as I do?
