Home 🌏🕉️ Poem by Avleen Dhaliwal

Spring is here
Sun is shining today
Wild flowers are blooming
The air is still a bit chilly
Feels fresh and rejuvenating
It's first of may
Mayday :)

I woke up in a new space today
In a new time
In a new space

Lost count of how many times I've had to move
Since my childhood
Packing up and moving into new homes
Saying bye to the old memories and attachments
To say hi to the new ones
This Bittersweet symphony of life
Stops for no-one
Where everyone is looking for a place, person, animal or thing to call home

I wonder what is home?
Is it a dome? :)

When people ask me
Where are you from
What do I say?

My last home or the countless ones before that which was home?

Where am I going? Who knows
I'm just trying to find a place to call home

They say when the roots are deep
There's no fear of the wind

Everything has been go go go
Almost there

Time to settle down and integrate
In my new room and new flatmates
For a bit

So I can feel

All these feelings
I haven't had time to feel yet
