Land Of My Past by Dorotea©
As I look at the land I’ve always called home
Realization hits, this is where my beginning was sown
The meadows stretched out before me so vast
An impulse, I cannot stay for it’s the land of my past
Though pain would arise if I broke this bond
Curiosity born, a sudden wonder of lands beyond
Intrigue arises from the depths of my heart
Feelings uncovered, with my past I must now part
A gentle breeze brings many memories so sweet
Hesitation strikes, do I know the right path for my feet?
Doubt streams into the empty corners of my mind
Unsure destiny, in a new land what might I ever find?
A yellow butterfly lands on my sun burnt nose
Fluttering hope, I’ll take the road by where the river flows
I will follow the message of my heart’s voice
My destiny, I know my life has been the right choice
© Sonja von Bell~ I'm still working on this poem, I'm not happy with the ending and the flow needs some work.
