Going Home Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

Going Home



Soon it will be time
for you to rest
relax rejoice with long
missed friends family

in the home of memories
old new birth weavings
new restorative energies

enjoy the break
smiling for you
will catch you
in heartbeats happiness

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

I actually wrote this with a friend in mind, who is looking forward to going home, when another teaching term is over. It would be nice if New Zealand was in reality, waiting to welcome me back in green arms; but alas NZ cares nothing for poets or poetry :) I shall slip into the country unnoticed :) And in farewell to Indonesian, from the outskirts of Jakarta, it was possible to live on savings and write and post over 4000 poems from here, most conceived here; in NZ I fear it will be impossible to write anything significant. Perhaps it will be necessary to leave NZ again after a few years, to write somewhere where poetry has a meaningful place in the lives of a few literary people :)
