HOMESICK

     By: Adjetey Emmanuel                              
Having been away from home for a decade
Just trying to be far now living in the glade.
Staying far-away from home isn’t an easy task
Now my only source of survival is the rusk.

This feeling now makes me feel homesick.
Whenever I set my eyes on this flying tick
How I wish I could forever have these pleasant memories in my dreams
Recalling the best times spent with my families and my teams

Now my only comrades are the thorns and the flowers,
So, I spend all my hours starring at the trees thinking they’re towers
Walking in the forest and wading alone in this river.
Besides makes me to quiver and shiver.

I know I deserve this feeling since it’s my fault
But! I also believe this feeling will one day comes to a halt
Yes! There’s no place like home.
Hence, I will someday be at home enjoying my pome.
