Voyages (for Roland)

... coming home is the best part of the journey... (image is of Boracay Beach at sunset)

Wish that I could travel far and wide across the seas

View the scenery of this world from a summer breeze.

Would that I could reach the stars or touch the skies above

See the place where day meets night, be witness to their love.

Dream that I can soar towards where pain does not exist

Elysium, where all lies and tears, vanish at morning’s mist.

Hope dare I that someday all my yearnings will come true,

To travel far and wide, my dear, and yet come back to you.

Oh, how lovely Justa! And I would say I have similar wishes for travel too. Maybe one day! And how kind to dedicate it to Roland, the great traveller!! :oD

Thank you, dear Suzy :) One of my greatest wishes is to journey to Egypt and see the great pyramids and the Valley of the Kings, as you said... someday, someday. *sigh*

I've done it, and I'll do it again! Thanks, Justa; what an honor!

You are very welcome, Roland, and as Suzy said - you are indeed the great traveller!

When I read (for Roland), I felt a pang of pain, recalling good ol' jotty days, when I too had dedicated my duo of micro poems to Roland and Black Ace (Chef and Photographer).
'See the place where day meets night; be witness to their love' is undoubtedly my my earnest desire too and my favourite image here.
And I share yours and suzy's desire: aren't all us writers nomads!
