Poem: Start Packing
Poem : Start Packing
My love is taking me on an adventure
so I should just start packing.
I was feeling like I should not go.
What is holding me back, though?
My initiative has been lacking.
I know that a change has got to come,
so I should just start packing.
Sure, we want to make a house a home,
plant roots and let it be well lived in,
to have stability
and to stop our wanderings.
Nevertheless, if we feel ready
to head out of the door,
we should start packing.
I should not wonder what
I should bring,
just start packing.
When we start to strongly yearn,
just start packing.
When am I going to learn?
I should just start packing.
