Did you know Abraham Lincoln was a poet? I didn’t until I came across My Childhood’s Home I See Again.


His poem resonated with me because it captures the complicated feelings of returning to a place that shaped a childhood. The house may have changed, the landscape may look different, and the people may be gone, but the memories remain.


When I think of the home where I spent most of my growing-up years, I remember family gatherings, Mom calmly sending Dad to retrieve my toddler brother from the scaffolding, fall days burning the lawn and ditches, and the huge garden and orchard that kept us busy canning and preserving.


Returning to a childhood home is about more than a place; it’s about reconnecting with our history.


Lincoln’s poem beautifully captures that feeling. I think you’ll enjoy reading it, too.
