i have no home. i have a birth place, a place where i went to school, a place we moved to. a place where i lived when i was married, a place that took me in when i was homeless, a place i loved and wanted to stay there, a place i moved to work in. all thats left is where i'll be in the future.

Dear Harry, I remember you had moved somewhere, but thought you'd returned to Australia. Where are you now? Hope you have been reunited with your loved ones at home. Clever title and a poem filled with longing. It's easy to get homesick when we leave for a while. Love, Carolyn

My husband grew up overseas and he describes this feeling to me often.

I've returned home after 14yrs abroad. Now I talk funny, and keep quoting how things are in the other place. Enjoyed/sympathise with the sentiment.
