Nice for a haiku - the only thing I'd say is, the last line feels a little blah since you repeat "home" and since it's obvious - I mean, that's what migration is, flying away and then eventually coming back. So I'd suggest going a different direction with the last line, maybe something about winter or, if you really want to talk about the birds returning, go with something about how they'll be back in spring (but still without using "home.")

Otherwise, very nice.

In short, Mrs. Pontellier was beginning to realize her position in the universe as a human being, and to recognize her relations as an individual to the world within and about her.
