an ocean
apart,
twisted grains
drift lost
in salt-
questing for a tree
called home.

short, but sad, and very powerful
It looks so short, how you have captured so much feeling in so few words, truely amazing. Lonely, sad, adrift, no home. all very powerful emotions, not to long to read, but what a disguised emotional impact.

questing for a tree called home is wonderful- just a fine tuned little exact piece of poetry- really like this one.
