Tree - House Poem by Jacqui Broad

Tree - House



I want to find myself a forest,
and go live there alone.
I'll build my own home,
even if it must be in a tree.
If I must be honest,
I'm tired of living in stone.
I want to befriend fairies, a gnome.
Who like me, nobody will see.
It's this haste I cannot digest,
always chasing after the unknown.
By myself I want to roam,
and explore what it's like to just be...
After listening to Van Morrison's 'Days like these.'

When I was five years old, it was my dream, to be alone, always in some unexplored land. Now I see such a thing would hurt too much. Thanks for that revisitation, and the pleasant linger of nostalgia.
