Home of the Traveler's Heart

 

Home of the Traveler’s Heart

What is Home to a traveler’s heart?

When you’ve seen hills, forests, plains,

deserts, clouds, rivers and canyons,

Where can you find that place,

that place that wants to rest?

The traveler’s heart is always on a journey,

riding the wheels of grand adventure,

sailing the winds to the east and to the west,

embarking on new territory,

 each wings set flight,

chasing the sunrise and the sunset and

longing for that moment of ecstacy

 to sail down to a place of tranquil peace.

The journey of a traveler’s heart,

seeks a home and yet finds none,

when toboganning emotions that give rise to the feeling

that everywhere is a new temporary dream,

a dream that keeps fleeting,

a dream that remains sleeping,

yielding to tomorrow and remembering the yesterdays,

living and capturing the now moments

as the wind sails away.

The traveler’s heart has only one desire,

that seeks a place to rest,

but its journey is an ongoing pillow,

that dreams of many dreams seeking for what’s best.
