Acrostic

Today's exercise (from Manjusvara's 'The Poet's Way') was an acrostic - a poetic form in which the initial letter of each line spells out a title or gives meaning - which was challenging, I have to admit!
So here it is...

Homing its way to the west
easing back slowly
asking only mind's respite,
rhyming the day's harsh unrest
timing the heart's gentling pace
here where the soul takes its place
