I have never had a yearning to see the other side as I am content staying where I am and would much prefer to live, than die.

Did you mean:
I miss drives (to) the ocean

An interesting look at life here, love Dolly x x x

This was a short, but poignant read.
I think when we are 'home' in the moment, we never think of the things we will miss. The moments never seem that precious.
Yet, years down the line, we look back and realize how wonderful all those little details really are.
This is very well-written and thought-provoking.

Your poem is full of feeling. I love how each line feels like a step toward something deeply missed. The image of jacaranda trees blooming is beautiful. It makes "home" feel so real. The longing in your words is wonderful. This was a lovely read!

You got those syllable counts spot-on for this contest. I really liked the picture you supplied, as well. I don't know what a Jacaranda tree is, but it's a nice word. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

    Thanks for your review Jess. I don't think you get Jacarandas in the US. They bloom in springtime with beautiful purple flowers.
