I have always loved to travel. There’s something about wandering across the world, seeing new cultures, and experiencing new things that always seems to make me realize that home isn’t always just the house. It’s the world. Stuck at home and daydreaming about all the places I could be visiting gave me inspiration to turn my thoughts of travel into this poem. I hope you guys enjoy it!
Days rise and nights fall
To me, the lands will always call
To walk around and visit places no one has seen
Worlds only traversed in my dreams
A journey I had never been on before
A chance to go out and explore
A voyage across high seas
That icy ocean breeze
Blows behind me as waters freeze
Across these stormy seas, I set sail
To visit lands told about in tales
To walk upon all these lands
Through deserts full of sand
Wind whipping up dust storms
As the deserts transform
Into the ocean’s shore
I always long to see more
Forests lush and green
So peaceful and so serene
In comparison to the thunder in the plains
When the sky overhead pours and rains
Majestic mountains stand tall
As ice sheets crash to the ocean and fall
Through vivid reefs and atolls
Volcanoes spewing lava and ash
This journey of a lifetime will forever last
For those who don’t wander
Will never know, will never wonder
What it means to travel these lands
To go out farther and see
This is my purpose, my journey
This voyage is my quest
That I will continue until my final rest.
