Longing to travel
On a big, steel bird I’ll fly
To places old…new…
See people I miss,
Rekindling dear old friendships
…and bask in their glow;
Get lost on strange streets
In unknown cities and towns…
Tasting new cultures:
Civilization’s cradle-
Africa- my heart’s at home
Sharing with people;
A kaleidoscope
Of animals and colours…
The dark continent.
Italy’s beauty…
It’s ancient, crumbling charm
Infusing my soul;
Patchwork tapestries
With cypress trees…stitched by hand…
And notable landmarks;
Warm, friendly people
Under a vast Van Gogh sky…
Exhilarating!
But now, mind travel,
Searching for a place to land…
Planning tomorrow…
Lady Liberty
Shrouded in the New York fog…
Always…welcoming.
