Homeland

Addressing an acrostic to the meaning of homeland

History books and maps define you as a specific land.

Obstacles, borders are humans’ creations, until they expand.

May we learn to detect the delicate corresponding essence

Each thing we see is, beyond its coarse appearance.

Lands are not to be underestimated, but

As you know, the meaning of you is immaterial.

No flags, or names, or lines can be you, really.

Did you know that I carry you in me?
