Dreams beyond home
She walks the streets she’s always known, But feels a longing deep, alone. A fire burns inside her chest, To leave, to grow, to find what’s best. Her heart beats fast when she thinks of far, Of distant lights and shining stars. A thousand questions fill her mind— Will she be lost? Will she be kind? She dreams of skies she’s never seen, Of...

Emily
I feel cut off from the world I wish to reside in. No walks in the park with my sister discussing literature and men. No romanticism from my mother. The books my father read were standard American true crime. I say not Hogmanay, but when I'm here, I imagine walking like the others with their fathers or their brothers. Does warmth measured...

Premium Member Home Thoughts From Abroad
The half moon shimmered wanly as she wrote “Dearest, do you realize how much I miss you? How long will your trip abroad take? Here I am in empty rich, luxury mansion. A hovel with you would have been better. Or perhaps you do not love me anymore?” Thus the letter arrived in my posh Rome hotel. I could not help but...

Dreams run wild Can reach outside your home Your view and your heart Anything outside your home May be full of expectations And possibilities Anything not in view May be full of hopes Anything outside your heart May be more heartening So you travel with your dreams And your knapsack on your back One day you may be back home With extra...

An Alien Abroad
An Alien abroad. Another pondering by Michele Angell I see you have made more changes, wherever I seem to roam, To this beautifully landscaped place you lovingly call home, It is certainly more efficient, with countless new inventions, And I know you want the best,...

Living Abroad
I saw a boy lost between worries and screams His Thoughts running like water in streams Said home he had Cupboards full of dreams He sighed and said in loneliness I have always cried I wondered why, I asked why. He said he grew alone meeting his dad once a year He said I met him 5 to...

Trump Abroad
At first, when he sidestepped the Queen, A slight that the world had not seen, We hung our heads low, Embarrassed, although Such faux pas have become quite routine. But the meeting with Putin was worse For it seemed, when the two would converse, Someone looked like a chump And, of course, it was Trump Who makes things go from bad right to verse!...

Nightmare Abroad
Three years have been a lifetime, In a place unfathomable- Met with a gun barrel to the scalp, Scars cover his back, tortured for freedom, Punished for a woman he loves who stands proud with her flame to the sky signaling opportunity… Starved with aching intestines, dreams of Mother’s cornbread,...
