A Place called Home

I long to be home,
where the land,
is covered with green trees,
where the mountaintops
are decked with snows,
where cold wind
that flutter the prayer flags,
blows on the face,
where people sit
around fireplaces,
with warm smiles
and sparkling eyes,
joys spreading around
like the eagle’s wings.

I long to be home,
where the rivers are clean and clear,
where the sky’s blue and vast,
where the air’s cool and fresh.

I long to be home,
listening to silence,
wanting nothing,
feeling complete.

    Just those four little words:
    “I long to be home” place a chill in my heart, because unfortunately, the echoes from my memories are so different.
    I only recall the constructions sites, and dust of monstrous new buildings around Thimphu city. The vapid, vicious rumours milling in the cafes of Thimphu, and the lack of a proper place with books where one can sit in the sunshine and read…*sigh*
    So in a way, i envy how you see things, and wish i had such a memory as well….

    the only memory i wish to cherish is the rural life…and their simplicity…i hate those construction sites and noise they drill through our ears…i hate the public library that hoards loads of cheap novels…i hate the bars that sing and shout into the nights…
