Rootedness

While walking on the village streets
Showing a friend the sights and eats
I was struck once more
At my very core

For this shore
My heart beats


In response to this week’s W3 prompt: Write a poem in any style about a place that evokes emotion (a place where you find poetry) I wanted to somehow address the rootedness I feel toward where I live.

This is home. This is home. This is home.

Trying another Welsh form: Clogyrnach

  1. I love me such a poem that talks about loving the place one is at… the roots. This is wonderful. I love it. Thanks for sharing. Now I feel I know the place and love it too. xoxo

  2. I love that you used the photos to accompany your poem. The architecture in your community is lovely and the last line of your poem says it all!
