And when I pressed my fingers to the ground
The soft powdered dirt
The rock still warm from the suns glow
Beneath my fingers
Were the roots of the earth
Tangled
Twisted
A whole new world
Mirrored below
There was life, light
Beneath my hands
The roots of the earth grew
As continuously as my heart beat
Even through the concrete and rock
So powerful
I could still feel it
Nature broke through
Not with trumpets and flags
But with the quiet and gentle unfurling-
Of a new green shoot
The breeze
so tranquil
The breeze to calm an army
The late summer sun
Shining gold against the green and brown
Their leaves gently shook in rythm
Dancing to the oceans subtle song
Never a house been so beautiful
As the one in Spain
My home
The most beautiful
I wondered how anything could be more beautiful than this
Dreaming how the sea may look today
As the black metal vehicle took me away
From the only place I had ever loved
My home forever, that won’t change
