Adventure Not Home! Poem by Iman Sadikeen

Confined and bound to traditions and norms.

Accustomed I be to one way of life,

a life that breeds only monotony and bore.

Repressing in millions, my longings and dreams,

To roam and explore the wide expanse,

Perils and tranquility, want I to savour both,

Seeking knowledge and wisdom all the same.

A journey across the lands of turbulent world,

That only the daring had ventured and seen

Safer my living now, i know it is,

Yet craving my heart is, for ADVENTURE not home!
